Join us in supporting your local, independent businesses during Independents Week, July 1-7 in Fayetteville.
Keep money in the local economy, help create jobs, sustain the environment, and nurture our community by shopping locally.
A few FIBA members are offering specials during the week, but in general, we want to encourage everyone to visit as many local, independent businesses as possible during the week.
Here are some of the Independents Week specials, and we’ll add more here soon!

For each $100 a person spends in a locally owned business, $45 remains in the community and is reinvested in other local businesses. $100 at a chain generates $13 to re-circulate in the community, and $100 online generates nothing for our community. If all 70,000 people in Fayetteville diverted $100 to a local business that they would have spent at a chain, $2,240,000 (45-13 multiplied by 70,000) more dollars will stay in Fayetteville. $200 each would of course double that, etc. $100 locally instead of online would keep $3,150,000 circulating in our community and collect sales taxes.
Don’t forget! One of our members,
