StayLocal is Greater New Orleans’ independent business alliance. We create an environment for local businesses to thrive through research, education, and advocacy.

Sending Love Letters to Local Business

StayLocal is encouraging business owners, influencers, civic leaders and others to shout out their favorite local businesses in honor of Valentine’s Day.

To help remind consumer that money spent at independent, locally owned businesses recirculates in our local economy, we’re showing those businesses love. After all, they’re here for us all year round!

So in the season of love, let’s celebrate the locals who nourish, host, provide , warm, connect, guide, advise, and do so much for our communities!

To send a love letter, contact Maryann Miller, StayLocal Program Manager, at maryann@staylocal.org today!

Open for Business During Construction

Great news! The City of New Orleans secured billions of dollars for infrastructure improvements along business corridors. As a community, we understand the long-term benefit that these improvements have for residents and businesses.

StayLocal has partnered with the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development, RoadWork and Dept. of Public Works to provide support to businesses for any short-term impact businesses may experience while roads are improved.

Visit the Road Construction Ramp Up! Toolkit page of our website, and access a helpful guide to tailor to your business’ needs from NVisions Communications and Consulting. You can also find tips and resources for business owners, and ways to sign up for alerts on construction projects.
