In a time where the competition from the multinational companies is slowly suffocating the last of the independent stores out there, supporting your local dealer is more important than ever to keep your community alive. Not to mention being surprised by a hand picked product range far away from any predictable stuff only picked out to meet the next quarterly sales. Stores are about more than just shopping. They are a base for social interaction, inspiration, a source of work and a selling point for tourism. Why visit OUR little town? If, in a few years, the answer is “super effective shopping-drones”, we´ll all be in deep trouble.THINK LOCAL, BUY LOCALQuote: Jonas Pekkari @ www.tpostmag.com/issue/support-your-local-dealer/
