Celebrate the Holidays in Superior: A Small Business Roundup

As we embrace the joyous holiday season, Superior, Arizona, invites you to partake in the Superior Chamber's Small Business Season and glean some uniquely Superior holiday gift ideas for your loved ones. Discover the magic that this charming mountain town has to offer during this festive time of the year.


 


Shop & Support Local with the Superior Chamber of Commerce's Small Business Season!


Superior Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce Small Business Season!


New this year, the Chamber is launching a program to support small business. The program runs from November 13th to December 31st. Throughout the holiday shopping season, the Chamber is encouraging shoppers to “Spend Local” and earmark at least part of their holiday spending in support of local small business.

Our small businesses are the first to support our community with donations and prizes for community events. They are the first to step up and support all of our non-profits with money, volunteer time and donations. It’s always a great idea to support them.

“Small business is the backbone of our economy. 64% of our new jobs in the US come from small business. When people spend their dollars locally, more money stays local. On average, for every $100 sent locally, $68 of that stays here.”

“By implementing Small Business Season, we hope to encourage people to patronize all sorts of small businesses this holiday. In addition to our wonderful retail options, there are dining establishments, personal service providers, even local artisans that need our support. Small Business Season is a way to help our residents develop a better appreciation for how their spending affects our area and quality of life.”


Take part in the Chamber's local holiday campaign: Buy Local – Win Local – Every time you spend at a participating small business you have the opportunity to enter in a raffle. Each week raffle items will be drawn.

The Superior Chamber of Commerce is challenging everyone in the area to support small business this holiday season.
