Supporting local businesses stimulates local economy

When they thrive, they hire more, helping the community in general

By Joyce Coomer

Printers aren't the only local businesses who sometimes lack local patronage. Restaurants, tire and auto dealers, retailers in general -- all locally owned businesses would benefit greatly from local support. And when locally owned businesses are supported by the local population, their businesses will thrive and they can hire more employees, helping the community in general.

Letter: Local printing busineses not acknowledged, supported

Columbia has several local printing firms, who deserve support

Joyce M Coomer writes:
There is one economic factor that gets overlooked by a lot of people - the simple fact that local businesses are not acknowledged nor supported as much as they should be by the local people, including government agencies.

I see vehicles from at least five printing companies, from as far away as Louisville, in town on a regular basis, usually parked so they are most likely making deliveries. Yes, it bothers me as a print shop owner, but we are not the only printers in Columbia so if our services are not being utilized for whatever reason, why not utilize another local printer's services? - Joyce M Coomer
