Small Business Saturday is right around the corner, the day after everyone’s favorite shopping day, the legendary Black Friday.
Originally started by in 2010 by American Express to spotlight small and local businesses, the day has grown into a national opportunity to celebrate and support locally-owned small businesses and all they do for their communities.

The incredible results of this campaign speak for themselves. According to the American Express Small Business Saturday Consumer Insights Survey:
- In 2021, U.S. consumers reported spending an estimated $23.3 billion at independent retailers and restaurants on Small Business Saturday.
- The estimated spend on Small Business Saturdays 2010 – 2021 is $163 billion.
- Sixty-six percent of consumers who reported shopping on Small Business Saturday said the day makes them want to Shop Small all year long, not just during the holiday season.
