Eumundi businesses unite for Buy Local Day celebrations
The Eumundi business community is gearing up for Buy Local Day celebrations on 22 June. Eumundi Chamber of Commerce and Experience Eumundi have partnered with SCC and Buy Local Sunshine Coast, to showcase Eumundi as the ultimate destination for buying local on the Sunshine Coast. Buy Local Day places a spotlight on local businesses and the benefits of spending local.
Tom Rumble, the new Eumundi Chamber Traders Representative and Hayley Gee from Experience Eumundi, rallied business owners for a photo shoot last week, to encourage all Eumundi businesses to get on board and be a part of something bigger.
"Seeing all our businesses together was a testament to our local community spirit and passion to celebrate our diverse community and to show everyone we're united in supporting local," said Tom.
Cindy Suters, President of the Eumundi Chamber of Commerce, is calling on all businesses and local traders to get involved and showcase why Eumundi is unique and special. “This is such an exciting opportunity for our vibrant business community. Buy Local Day will put Eumundi well and truly on the map as a must-visit for locals and visitors alike."
If you are a Eumundi trader there are three ways you can participate:
Activate Your Business on 22 June. Get creative and plan a fun activity or promotion for Buy Local Day. From tastings, giveaways, demonstrations, workshops, exclusive deals or fancy dress - the more engaging the better!
Show your customers you are involved and tell the community that you are part of the celebrations by displaying Buy Local Day posters, sharing social media posts from @ experienceeumundi @eumundichamber and @buylocalsunshinecoast.
Spread the Word. Share your offers and activities on Facebook or Instagram and tag #buylocalsunshinecoast #BuyLocalEumundi #experienceeumundi #eumundichamber and #buylocalsunshinecoast.
Tim McGee, Head of Business and Industry Development commended Eumundi Chamber of Commerce, Experience Eumundi and the local business community on uniting for the first ever region-wide Buy Local Day. “Eumundi is setting the standard for how local communities can capitalise on this campaign,” said Tim.
