Written by Genevieve Rahman | Mar 26, 2020 7:22:06 AM

Due to major temporary changes in life as we know it, it's more important than ever to support your locally owned businesses in the Chicagoland area. It's natural to feel a sense of disorganization in our community, but in order to overcome this pandemic, we must continue to create togetherness with continued business with our neighbors and friends.

In order to get back to some type of normalcy, there are ways you should consider supporting local businesses during this time of uncertainty:

Continue to shop local online

Shopping local continues to grow the economy in your neighborhood, even during the hardest of times. Do you have a neighborhood go-to business for your daily workplace needs? Check and see if they offer online shopping and delivery during this time. This win-win scenario helps you stay inside while supporting local business and employees to continue working to serve your needs

Warehouse Direct has the option to place your orders online. Check out our website here for quick, easy ordering and overnight delivery during this time.

A good business review matters more than ever

Did you have a great experience the last time you bought from a local business? Be sure to let them know, as well as others, by leaving a great review. Good business reviews are bound to be seen by the online community, which can help indirectly boost their business through your word-of-mouth. This is important for all local businesses now and after the pandemic passes.

Find out who is delivering their services and products

In crazy times like these, it's important to know who can deliver your workplace necessities to your doorstep. Be sure to look into if your local businesses of choice offer delivery and what impacts do COVID-19 have on their standard delivery. Thankfully, WD at this time is still offering the same overnight delivery to our customers.
