Support Local Business In Chandler
#iCHOOSECHANDLER
This holiday season, your support for Chandler's small businesses matters. When you make a purchase at a local business, you're not just helping that business, but their employees, their vendors, the local economy and supporting a community.
Launched by the City of Chandler, the Choose Chandler initiative is about choosing Chandler businesses first, whether it’s shopping for a new outfit , planning an afternoon of family fun, ordering takeout for the holiday office party and keeping our community strong with acts of kindness and volunteerism. These small shifts in our spending habits, from routine purchases to specialty items, have a BIG impact on our Chandler businesses. And if you're looking for unique, made-in-Chandler items that are perfect for holiday gift giving, you are in luck! We have put together a Choose Chandler holiday gift guide filled with food-themed items, specialty gifts, apparel and more that are just waiting to be wrapped up for the holidays.
When you head out to explore Chandler's locally owned boutique shops and shopping malls, know that Chandler businesses, restaurants and hotels continue to innovate and take precautions to ensure a safe and healthy experience for everyone. Holiday hours do vary, so be sure to check individual store hours before heading out this holiday season.
