ABOUT US

Whether it’s the local coffee shop where they know your name by heart, the ice cream store where the children head after a little league game, or the family-owned pizza place you order from on a busy Friday night, local businesses serve as the lifeblood of our community.  This year has brought hard times for our local businesses from mandated closures, occupancy restrictions, and safety concerns for our essential workers. We created Charlotte Made to raise awareness for our businesses – to help them prosper again – and to ultimately strengthen our town’s economy.

 

Help us support our local businesses by sharing this initiative with your friends and family. Charlotte supports local because supporting local means supporting our neighbors, our friends, and our families.
