Farmers Markets
Local purchasing means business friends together...

What did the mega-multinationals ever do for you? Apart from selling you cheap stuff, that is?

Purchasing from local suppliers will:

- Give you an extra USP or two.

- Enable you to approach better markets.

- Get you free publicity.

- Get some more real Human Beings on your side.

Convinced? Just examine a breakfast; eggs, bacon, sausages, mushrooms, bread, potatoes, tomatoes, tea, coffee, juices, milk, jam. All of them (well, apart from the tea and coffee - which can be sourced from local suppliers) are made here. You can know exactly where they come from - as can your guests. They're not that much more expensive and they taste wonderful. Well they would do wouldn't they? They haven't been adulterated with rubbish, kept in a deep freeze for yonks or flown thousands of miles to get on your guest's plate. Plus, when you deal with a local supplier or producer, you've got yet another Human Being on your side, haven't you? There's no reason at all why they wouldn't assist you with a bit of publicity, like putting your cards out in their points of sale, or whatever else.
