Economy matters
Money spent in local businesses stays in our community. Any time you shop in a local business, you are generating wealth for our local economy. For every £1 spent up to 70p can stay within the local economy. We want to keep and generate as much wealth within our economy and keep as much of the pound as possible in our region.
Job creation matters
Local businesses prefer to hire locals! Studies show that supporting your local economy by shopping local creates more jobs and, in some sectors, provide better wages and benefits. Many Wirral businesses are owned by locals, too!
Environment matters
Buying local reduces your carbon footprint. Having a diverse range of businesses within walking or biking distance reduces the amount of driving you need to do, lessens traffic and air pollution, and helps to conserve the environment. With each purchase made close to home or work you invest in your local economy, saving time and reducing your carbon footprint.
Convenience matters
Many of the products you need can be purchased right here on the Wirral (from Antiques to art supplies, locally crafted Beer and Small batch Gin, to designer clothes and Artisan bread).
Think local first, and search our Retail Directory and Services Directory for the products and services you need.
