Top 5 Ways to Support Local Businesses

April 14, 2020

As the COVID-19 pandemic growths more prevalent each day, we’re watching on as our favourite local shops, cafes and restaurants try and adapt to these changes, with many having to close their doors for good. These constant changes are taking a toll on workers, families, and communities...So what can we do to help?

 HERE ARE OUR TOP 5 WAYS TO SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES . . . 

1. DELIVERY SERVICES

Check whether your local smallgoods or green grocer stores are offering delivery services. Here are some of our favourites: Rio Coffee, Adelaide Central Markets, Simply Fresh, Metropolitan Fresh (Norwood, North Adelaide, Findon), All the Things, Barossa Fine Foods...and of course Goodies and Grains!

 

2. OPT FOR TAKEAWAY

Given that we’re all spending a lot of time at home, this inevitably means spending more time in the kitchen. So, if you're in need of a break from cooking, why not opt for takeaway once a week. Now is the time to experience your favourite restaurant meals from the comfort of your own home. Here are some of our favourite restaurants/cafes offering takeaway services: Golden Boy, Cocco Bello, Antica Pizzeria, Bowlsome, Crack Kitchen, Fine and Fettle, Karma and Crow, Parwana

 

3. GIFT CARDS

Whether it be $10 or $100, why not purchase a gift card or credit note from your favourite store, or maybe even a give a cash donation!

 

4. GET ONLINE

Just because many nonessential services have closed their doors, doesn't mean they still can't be part of your weekly routine. Get online and check whether your well-loved services are still available, such as yoga, pilates or therapists.

 

5. SOCIAL MEDIA

Keep active on social media by tagging and sharing your favourite brands’ posts. This simple tip only takes a few minutes, but can help grow their audience and foster a well-needed sense of community.
