City of Culver City logoThe City of Culver City’s Economic Recovery Task Force is launching the #ChooseCulverCity buy local campaign to support community businesses and encourage consumers to choose local when shopping, dining, or requiring services.  The campaign focuses on why individuals should choose Culver City and how buying local stimulates the regional economy, provides jobs, and helps with economic recovery. The City is calling on both residents and businesses to help spread the word and promote the awareness initiative.

“As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact our small businesses, it is important to think local first and choose Culver City” notes Mayor Göran Eriksson. “Buying local keeps businesses open, maintains our community character, and ensures a quality of life that makes Culver City an exceptional place to live, work and enjoy.”

Individuals and businesses interested in promoting this program may request materials such as lawn signs, decals, pins, posters by emailing Elaine Warner at elaine.warner@culvercity.org or by calling her at (310) 253-5777.  Logos and social media collateral are available for download on the City’s webpage.

Individuals and businesses are reminded to wear a mask, maintain social distance, and follow all other State, County, and City public health recommendations when shopping and dining locally.
