Buying Local is good for Bandera!

Did you know that smaller towns feel economic downturns before larger municipalities? Many wonderful small businesses are finding it harder to stay afloat in this tough economy. Why send money to another country, state, or larger city when you might have what you need right here? The business you help save might belong to your neighbor, a church buddy, or even just a friendly local you exchange smiles with when you see them around town.

Imagine your city without these businesses. They provide the character that makes a downtown worth visiting. Many are historic and all of them have stories for both tourists and locals to tell. Come on in and you'll easily find the owner who started that business because they love people and they love Bandera.

Let's export more than we import!

The Bandera Business Project is an initiative designed to help give local vendors a leg up when it comes to competing for local dollars or even selling outside of the area to bring money back into the local economy.
Here's what the Bandera Vendors Project can do to help our small businesses:

Online Presence and Payments
