We awarded one of our customers with a $250 in-store gift card and TWO local businesses with a wellness kit from Naka Herbs & Vitamins. And we had a ton of fun learning about the small business that you love.
We received an overwhelming number of mentions! Our audience REALLY loves supporting local and we are so proud of that!
Now that lockdown 2.0 is upon us, local businesses need our support more than ever. We are grateful to be considered an essential business and continue to operate 10-5 Monday – Saturday for in-store shopping with safety measures in place for our shoppers. We are also offering curbside pick up as well as both local and regional delivery options (see here for details).
Some of our neighbours in the foodservice and restaurant industries are not as fortunate. With winter upon us those who were lucky enough to be able to offer outdoor dining in the summer are limited to how they can continue to operate. Some have even closed for the month.
We wondered: How can we help support local restaurants in St. Catharines?
Knowing how you can support your favourite local businesses is the first step in the health of our local economy. And, you have to eat!
So we’ve listed here YOUR top 20 recommended restaurants, cafes and markets from our last contest. These are the local businesses nominated by our Facebook and Instagram followers. Thank you to everyone who participated in highlighting the local businesses you love. We had so much fun! Now it’s your turn – scroll down, order, and enjoy!
(P.S. The winning nominees of our Naka Wellness Kits were Ruby Red Beautiful and Mahtay Cafe & Lounge )
