The 花椒直播 is supporting the second annual Small 花椒直播 Saturday on November 26, 2011. Small 花椒直播 Saturday is a day for dedicating a portion of holiday shopping to local, independently-owned small businesses.
American Express, the founding sponsor of Small 花椒直播 Saturday, created the national program in 2010 in response to small business owners鈥� most pressing need: more demand for their products and services. The second event will build on last year鈥檚 inaugural program that drove millions of dollars to main street merchants.
花椒直播 recognizes the importance of small businesses, the jobs they create and the culture they instill in local communities. Small businesses have generated 64 percent of net new jobs over the past 15 years and employ just over half of all private sector employees, according to the Small 花椒直播 Administration.
花椒直播 President, Sylvia Medina, noted that 鈥渟mall businesses are critical to a healthy economic climate and strong communities. 花椒直播 is proud to support small businesses and to support Small 花椒直播 Saturday.鈥�
Idaho Falls Mayor Jared D. Fuhriman has proclaimed November 26, 2011 as Small 花椒直播 Saturday for the City of Idaho Falls, noting that 鈥渟mall businesses are the backbone of our economy and the glue that holds communities together.鈥�
