ROME-FLOYD CHAMBER REMINDS LAST MINUTE (OR NEXT-TO-LAST MINUTE) CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS TO SPEND THEIR DOLLARS LOCALLY

The Rome-Floyd Chamber reminds those who are currently wrapping up (or just starting) their Christmas shopping to spend their dollars locally.

Pam Powers Smith, President and CEO, asserts that most of the items sought online may be purchased at local stores. Plus, those who shop locally stand a much better chance of avoiding shipping delays.

Shoppers may access a list of member businesses on the Chamber’s website at www.romega.com. The Business Directory includes everything from gift shops to car dealers, says Powers-Smith.

The website is also a great resource for those in search of a job. Employment opportunities abound, including at the Chamber, states Powers-Smith.

Powers-Smith adds that resources are also offered to local business owners in search of employees.

The Rome-Floyd Chamber is gearing up for the return of its Business Expo, set for Thursday, January 13th, 2022 at the Forum River Center in downtown Rome. That event provides another opportunity to learn about the goods and services provided by member businesses.
