ROSLINDALE, MA — Small Business Saturday is designed to celebrate and call attention to the wonderful local businesses that make up the fabric of our communities. This year, consumers are again asked to “Shop Small” on Saturday, Nov. 26.
Created by American Express, the first Small Business Saturday took place in 2010, and it encouraged people across the country to support small, local businesses. By the following year, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed a resolution to support the day. The idea caught on and grew immensely in the following years, and by 2015, it is estimated that 95 million headed out to shop on Small Business Saturday.
We’re looking for Rozzie businesses that will be participating in Small Business Saturday.
