Township of Terrace Bay joins Digital Main Street’s ShopHERE powered by Google to Support Local Businesses. The program offers local businesses and artists the opportunity to start selling online.
To help support our local small businesses, today Terrace Bay is joining the ShopHERE powered by Google program, with a goal of getting local businesses online this year. ShopHERE powered by Google, which started in the City of Toronto, helps independent businesses and artists build a digital presence and minimize the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In May, Google Canada announced a one million dollar investment to enable Digital Main Street to expand the program to municipalities across the country, offering more businesses and artists the opportunity to build their own online store. Because the opportunities afforded by the digital economy are still limited if people don’t have the right skills, Google’s investment will also help more small businesses and artists receive the digital skills training needed to participate in the digital economy. The program is now available to small businesses in Terrace Bay. Local businesses and artists can apply for the program at www.digitalmainstreet.ca/shophere to get their online store built at no-cost*. READ MORE
