We Help Michigan Businesses Grow

Buy Michigan Now is a statewide awareness campaign that encourages buying local to give the economy a lift. If every Michigan household shifted just $10 of its weekly expenses to Michigan-made products, collectively we would put $38 Million a week back into our economy. That’s over $1.9 Billion a year, and something we can all do. Shop with your hands as a map, and your heart as your guide.

2024 Holiday Gift Guide

According to the National Retailer’s Association, the average American spends nearly a thousand dollars on holiday shopping. Some of us will spend much less, while others will spend considerably more. Either way, most of us agree that we spend extra dollars at this time of year. And retailers all know that what happens between October and December, makes or breaks them. So, let’s make a concerted effort to keep those dollars close to home. Spend some money in the shops and eateries that you love in your town, and neighboring areas. If you want them to still be there, this is when they need you most. Plus, you find really unique items in small, independent shops.

We also know that these days many prefer online shopping for the sake of convenience. Thus, we’ve combined the opportunity to find unique, Michigan-made items and the small businesses that sell them, with the convenience of scrolling online, to create our 18th Buy Michigan Now Holiday Gift Guide. You’ll find some fun suggestions that we like, and links where you can buy them and/or shop for other items from that same company. Shop it. Share it. Happy Holidays!
