Shopping locally. What you need to be doing!
Day by day, our life in Lebanon gets harder and harder and what we need to be doing is supporting each other. Right after the pandemic spread, an economic crash took place and caused unemployment, collective depression and much more. Local shopping spread as a trend and it is by far the best initiative.
They say desperate times call for desperate measures and I think local shops are the answer. Although what is happening is a slap in the face, it opened new horizons for us Lebanese to thrive in times like these. We created online shops to either keep our businesses going or to get those businesses started. We needed this to stay alive.
Now the question is, how can we get out of the situation we’re in? It’s pretty simple, shop locally! Most shops have switched online so shopping is easier especially with the gas crisis. And what’s good about these shops is that they take into consideration every little detail, they care about their customers and they are doing everything they can to cope with the ongoing situation.
We do not know when this is going to get better, so all we can do is support each other, buy from each other so we can lessen the economic crash and let more people know about these shops so they can also support them. What are you waiting for?
