Pink Friday – Support Small First
November 22 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm
Join us for our annual #ShopSmallFirst Movement – an annual event held each November on the Friday before Black Friday with one mission: to support small businesses first!
What is Pink Friday you ask?
Pink Friday is one HUGE day to #ShopSmallFirst–before Black Friday & before the big guy! Pink Friday is a small business spin on the traditional Black Friday shopping experience, reminding people to #ShopSmallFirst.
Black Friday is the largest shopping day of the year, but the sales and promotions from big box stores often overshadow the experiences that small businesses are focused on providing.
The goal on November 22nd is to celebrate the businesses that are the backbone of our local communities, whether online or brick and mortar.
“We know small businesses and the boutique retail industry have been hit hard this year. These stores often get overlooked on Black Friday, but these are the real businesses we need to be supporting this year. By creating Pink Friday and positioning it the week prior to Black Friday, we’re able to celebrate those businesses this holiday season and give them their own weekend to shine.”
