Shop Small is Back!

posted on

Shop Small is here! The nationwide campaign – back for its 6th year – is designed to bring more guests through your doors and highlights the vital role small businesses, including hospitality venues, play in our communities.

Now’s the time to showcase your menu, your service and the unique experience only your venue can deliver.

Restaurant Association partner, Amex is hoping to send more customers your way through a special Shop Small offer. From 1 October to 9 November, eligible Amex Card Members who save the Shop Small offer to their card, will receive $5 back when they spend $10 or more at participating small businesses, up to five times.*

For hospitality businesses, Shop Small is more than a campaign — it’s a reminder that every dollar spent with a small business supports communities, livelihoods and the aspirations of business operators.

The Restaurant Association is proud to support Shop Small. “Small hospitality businesses are the beating heart of our communities – they bring people together, create local jobs and add so much vibrancy to our towns and cities. Initiatives like American Express’ Shop Small movement shine a light on their importance – and that of all small businesses – and help ensure they continue to thrive. We’re pleased to see American Express continuing to back the businesses that make our local communities unique” – Marisa Bidois, Chief Executive of the Restaurant Association of NZ.
