Shop Local Stories

We already know that small businesses contribute more to the local economy than their corporate counterparts, but we also know that the importance of local businesses goes way beyond just a single transaction. 

Love Live Local is excited to team up with The Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod to highlight the contributions of small businesses to our community, and we are inviting people to share their favorite Shop Local Stories with us – how a local business you know is giving back to the community, providing exceptional customer service, working with other local businesses or providing employment opportunities in a unique and interesting way – for a chance to be featured on our website, social media platforms, and monthly email!

Huge thank you to the COOP for supporting this initiative and our Cape Cod small businesses!
