Support Local
Why Shop Local?
We could spend all day talking about why you should shop local, but the facts speak for themselves. When you shop local, you help keep your community thriving, which keeps everyone happy.
- Only one in six adults will purchase locally available products and services. If just half the Denton population spent $50 each month in Denton's independently-owned stores, their purchases would generate more than $6.5 million dollars per year in sales.
- Each time you spend money on dining, retail, or entertainment, you are charged an 8.25% sales tax. A portion of that sales tax goes to the city in which you buy those goods or services. When you shop in Denton, you support our city services such as the police department, fire & rescue, street maintenance, public libraries, and community parks.
