Over 100 businesses, including retail, hotels, restaurants, breweries and other experiences, across three Chamber of Commerce areas – Yarmouth, Barrington and Clare – are part of the Southwest Nova Gift Cards. | SaltWire
Allwright says as a Chamber they’ve been wanting to introduce a gift card program for some time. During and coming out of the COVID pandemic, the idea became even more vital as a means to support businesses as they recover from the pandemic.
“There are a lot of medium-sized businesses in the area who will be able to use the gift card for their employees,” he adds.One restaurant that accepts the new Southwest Nova Gift Card is Gaia Global Kitchen. Hannah Rhyno-Milot, the co-founder and general manager of Gaia Global Kitchen, says that small businesses continue to need support from the community.
She says the Southwest Nova Gift Card will help businesses by reminding the public how important it is to keep supporting local small businesses. “There is definitely a ripple effect as we source our produce, beer, wine and food from local suppliers,” she says. “After two years of pandemic, we are all hanging on, trying to keep the bills paid and our staff working. We need all the support we can get.”A retail and service business that accepts the new Southwest Nova Gift Card is The Style Merchant – a salon, spa and fashion boutique.
“We have increased our online and social media presence to keep our customers engaged and excited about our products and services so they don't forget about us,” says Smith.
