The Stone County Economic Development Partnership is organizing a community-focused initiative called “Just Shop Small,” aimed at boosting local commerce and encouraging residents to support neighborhood businesses. The event highlights the importance of small enterprises in sustaining regional economic vitality and fostering stronger community ties. Organizers hope that increased foot traffic during the campaign will help merchants improve sales and build customer loyalty. Activities may include special promotions, live entertainment, and family-friendly experiences designed to draw visitors into downtown areas. This effort aligns with broader national movements emphasizing the role of independent retailers in driving economic resilience.
