Local businesses are more likely to utilize other local businesses such as banks, service providers, and farms.
Independent retailers return more than three times as much money per dollar of sales to the community in which they operate than chain competitors. Independent restaurants return more than two times as much money per dollar of sales than national restaurant chains.
Local businesses are owned and operated by your neighbors! They care about and are invested in the well-being of your community and its future.
Local businesses are more accountable to their local communities and donate more money to non-profits.
Supporting local businesses is good for the environment because they often have a smaller carbon footprint than larger companies.
Small businesses and shops have always been the backbone of the Indian economy. During the pandemic around 40 million small business owners right from small manufacturers to store owners to service providers suffered from the strict lockdown norms.
Customer awareness and the intent to support the local community is a key factor in bringing in footfalls. The thought process was reinforced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his address soon after the lockdown was announced. “In times of crisis, this local (system) has fulfilled our demand, and saved us. Local is not just the need, it is our responsibility as well,” he said in his speech.

Many hundreds of years ago in a small Italian town, a merchant had the misfortune of owing a large sum of money to the moneylender. The moneylender, who was old and ugly, fancied the merchant’s beautiful daughter so he proposed a bargain. He said he would forgo the merchant’s debt if he could marry the daughter. Both the merchant and his daughter were horrified by the proposal.
The moneylender told them that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an empty bag. The girl would then have to pick one pebble from the bag. If she picked the black pebble, she would become the moneylender’s wife and her father’s debt would be forgiven. If she picked the white pebble she need not marry him and her father’s debt would still be forgiven. But if she refused to pick a pebble, her father would be thrown into jail.
They were standing on a pebble-strewn path in the merchant’s garden. As they talked, the moneylender bent over to pick up two pebbles. As he picked them up, the sharp-eyed girl noticed that he had picked up two black pebbles and put them into the bag. He then asked the girl to pick her pebble from the bag.
What would you have done if you were the girl? If you had to advise her, what would you have told her? Careful analysis would produce three possibilities:
The girl should refuse to take a pebble.
The girl should show that there were two black pebbles in the bag and expose the moneylender as a cheat.
The girl should pick a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to save her father from his debt and imprisonment.
The above story is used with the hope that it will make us appreciate the difference between lateral and logical thinking.
The girl put her hand into the moneybag and drew out a pebble. Without looking at it, she fumbled and let it fall onto the pebble-strewn path where it immediately became lost among all the other pebbles.
“Oh, how clumsy of me,” she said. “But never mind, if you look into the bag for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble I picked.” Since the remaining pebble is black, it must be assumed that she had picked the white one. And since the moneylender dared not admit his dishonesty, the girl changed what seemed an impossible situation into an advantageous one.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
Most complex problems do have a solution, sometimes we have to think about them in a different way.
