Why Shop Local

When You Buy Locally

Buying locally saves transportation fuel.

It Nurtures Our Community

Studies show that local businesses donate to community causes. Support the businesses that support us.

It Makes Us Unique

There's no place like Woodbridge! We are a Township of neighborhoods. Where we shop, where we eat and hang out - all of it makes our neighborhood home. Our businesses and business districts are part of what make us special and a great place to live.

It Creates Jobs

Local businesses are the best at creating jobs for our residents.

It Improves Your Health

If you can walk to your local stores, you become healthier in the process.

Buying Locally Is an Investment in the Community

Local businesses are often owned by people who live here, work here and are invested in our Township's future.

You Get Better Service

Local businesses often hire people who have a better understanding of the products they're selling and take more time to get to know their customers. More often than not, you are dealing with other Woodbridge residents.

Buying Locally Boosts Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship fuels America's economic innovation and prosperity and serves as a key means for families to move out of low-wage jobs and into the middle class.

It Keeps Dollars Circulating in Our Economy

Local businesses are more likely to utilize other local businesses and services.

It Ensures Our Success

Woodbridge Township is only as successful as our local businesses. We all take great pride in our business districts and our thriving downtowns.
