SHOP BURNABY MOUNTAIN
We Are a Vibrant SFU Burnaby Community.
We are developing a Burnaby Mountain Shop-Local Program to support local businesses on Burnaby Mountain and build a connected community where students, faculty, staff, residents, visitors, and local merchants can stay informed and connected with one another. We want to convey the message that We Are a Vibrant SFU Burnaby Community and raise the awareness of the importance of supporting the local community. Today, by helping a local business, you are also helping our community. So let's start taking action to help thousands of local businesses and make our own community better.
Why Shop Local?
1. Local businesses provide jobs for the community
According to the Government of Canada, small businesses represent 48% of the total labour force and about 30% of Canada’s total GDP.
​
2. Local businesses that represent the community
Local businesses sponsor many local events, environmental and community programs.
​
3. Local businesses offer unique products
Small businesses will bring a lot of unique and diverse products to your community. A cup of coffee with special flavor and care will make you feel happy all day.
