METAIRIE – The Jefferson Economic Development Commission has partnered with Shop Local NOLA, a new website designed to help customers find and support local businesses. JB Communications offered to develop a Jefferson Parish-specific page where all JP businesses can be listed and easily found. The page is simple to navigate and it is free to claim your listing.Â
Over the summer, JEDCO, Jefferson Parish and many local business organizations launched the Spend Local JP initiative to support businesses in the wake of COVID-19. The goal of the campaign is to remind residents that when they spend their money on a local business, they’re investing in brands they love while keeping friends, neighbors and family members employed. Additionally, dollars go further when they are spent on local business and they have a bigger impact on quality of life for all residents.
