This festive season let’s show our local businesses some love!
When we buy local, our money stays local. If there are more successful local businesses, there’s more revenue, and more job opportunities right here in our local communities.
Porirua businesses are amazing and offer a variety of quality goods, top-notch services and are awesome hospitality hosts.
If you’re looking to do some last-minute Christmas shopping or planning on having some fun over the summer break, why not choose to #LoveLocal and support our Porirua businesses.
