Shop Small, Support Local.
It’s the most wonderful time of year! This holiday season, the Dominic Fuscia Team will continue to support all local Philadelphia businesses. Not only does shopping small promote the local shops and makers you know and love, it also supports the community and our economy. Small businesses give back by creating new jobs and offering consumers the ability to contribute to the cause of supporting the local economy. Why wouldn’t you support your neighbors and friends and make an investment in your own neighborhood? This holiday season, join us and shop small, so we can all give back to our local communities! If you still have no idea what to gift your friends and family for Christmas, look no further! We have compiled a list of some of our favorite local shops as well as some great holiday shopping recommendations. So, sit back, relax, pour yourself a cup of coffee, scroll, and enjoy! ‘Tis the season to give back.
