Shop small on Saturday, November 25, 2023.
Saturday, November 25, 2023 is Small Business Saturday – a
day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for their
communities. This year, we know that small businesses need our support now more
than ever as they navigate, retool and pivot from the effects of the
coronavirus pandemic. Please join SBA and organizations across the country in
supporting your local small businesses by shopping at a small business.
Founded by American Express in 2010 and officially
cosponsored by SBA since 2011, Small Business Saturday has become an important
part of small businesses’ busiest shopping season. Historically, reported
projected spending among U.S. consumers who shopped at independent retailers
and restaurants on Small Business Saturday reached an estimated $17.9 billion
according to the 2022 Small Business Saturday Consumer Insights Survey
commissioned by American Express.
The highly successful team of SBA, Women Impacting Public
Policy (WIPP), and American Express will be kicking off the 2023 holiday season
by encouraging consumers to support our nation’s nearly 32 million independent
businesses this Small Business Saturday and all holiday season long.
