When you choose to support Tri-Cities Businesses, you are investing in the strength of your community. Choose local to support where you live, work and play.
Tri-Local is designed to engage, educate and motivate our community to support local businesses and to keep their money within the Tri-Cities. As the face of local businesses, the Tri-Local Collective strives to show consumers first-hand how their support of local independent businesses goes beyond those store-fronts and into the community as a whole.
Our goal is to establish such a strong brand, that when a consumer sees our logo in a store window, or on a street sign, they are reminded of our wonderful community and the businesses that make the Tri-Cities so great. We believe that by showing our neighbours how their money is making a difference, it will encourage them to continue supporting the Tri-Cities.
We want to make the Tri-Local community brand a campaign that our local residents feel proud to support.
45%
local reinvestment
For every $100 spent at an independent business, $63 is recirculated back into the local economy, while only $14 trickles down from multinationals.
8.4x
local job creation
Money is reinvested into the community through charitable donations, taxes, job creation and supply chain management, creating 8.4x more jobs than big corporations.
4.6x
community impact
Money spent on our local economy impacts our community 4.6x more than money spent elsewhere.
the tri-local collective
The Tri-Local Collective is proud to support our local businesses in a meaningful and effective way. All participating businesses receive 100% of the sales, which allows our hardest hit industries to recover from the last couple of years by coming together in unity, community and collaboration.
