If you buy from local businesses, you help the local economy and create new jobs.
One dollar spent locally is multiplied up to three or four times as it circulates around the region, driving local benefits for all.
All you need to do is check if there are local options when you have to buy, prioritise G21 contractors or suppliers whenever you can, or add local procurement targets into your policies.
To understand more about your local spend, email the GROW team for support, and tools to record your expenditure changing over time.
