Every dollar you spend locally works harder for our community.
When you shop, eat, and do business with locally owned stores and restaurants in Williams and Fulton Counties, research shows $68 of every $100 stays right here at home — compared to just $43 when spent at a national chain. That difference funds Little League uniforms, school tax revenue, jobs for your neighbors, and the kind of personal service you’ll never get from an algorithm or a big box store. This week’s Village Reporter features our annual $pend Local special section, spotlighting businesses like Klinger Pharmacy, Eckenrode Auto Repair, Kurtz Ace Hardware, Rath Builders Supply, Rings Pharmacy, Sauder’s TV & Appliance, SW Hardware, AJ Door LLC, and more — all locally owned, all invested in this community. Pick up your copy or visit thevillagereporter.com to read the full section, and next time you need something, think local first.
