Brant County is looking to make it easier for residents to shop local during the pandemic with an interactive map.
BRANT COUNTY - The County of Brant has created an interactive map of local businesses still offering services in the community.
Director of Economic Development and Tourism Russell Press says they wanted to make it easy for residents to support local.
“In light of COVID-19 health emergency, local businesses have had to quickly adapt how they connect with and serve the community. Many local businesses have modified their service to incorporate delivery, curb-side pickup and physical distancing. The map, which can be accessed at www.brant.ca/BrantWorksTogether, features information about these local businesses and includes restaurants, grocery stores, retail stores, pharmacies and more.”
On the map, business locations are geographically pin-pointed showing their address, contact information and additional service information. As well, users can sort information based on what category of business they want to learn more about
Local businesses that are considered essential workplaces under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act are also encouraged to reach out to the County of Brant Economic Development team to submit their information if they wish to be featured on the map. Local business information can be sent to invest@brant.ca. Please provide: name of the business, phone number, website, address, delivery/Pick-up options, and special hours for seniors/vulnerable individuals.
Press says one thing we call all do right now to support our economy is to shop local.
“Shopping local is a fantastic way to support our community and neighbours through this challenging time. We are so impressed with how well the local businesses were able to adapt. It is definitely a testament to the business’ resiliency.”
