       ienvenido a la sexta edición de la guía comercial Jamaica Plain
       Local First (JPLF)! Este año, nuestra guía incluye 170 negocios
       locales independientes y organizaciones sin fines de lucro.
Visite www.jplocalfirst.org, ya que la guía en línea se actualizará en el
transcurso del año. En la calle, los negocios participantes se pueden
identificar fácilmente por etiquetas adhesivas en las vidrieras y carteles
con imán en los vehículos de la zona. Cuando concurra a estos
comercios, no olvide mencionar que los encontró por medio de JP
Local First.
JPLF es una red sin fines de lucro, que ayuda a comercios locales
independientes desde febrero de 2013. Nuestra misión es apoyar,
promover y celebrar a los pequeños comerciantes de nuestra
comunidad, educando al público sobre los grandes beneficios
económicos, ambientales y culturales que se logran con una fuerte
economía local. Los estudios indican que cada $100 que se gastan
en un comercio local independiente, por lo menos $48 quedan en
la comunidad para circular dentro de la economía local. ¡Es el poder
del consumo!
En 2017, JPLF presentó un nuevo evento anual: Local First Fair (La
Feria de Local First). Enfocado en la comunidad, este evento nocturno
permite que los residentes se relacionen con los miembros de
nuestros comercios y organizaciones sin fines de lucro. En Jamaica
Plain trabaja una amplia gama de empresarios y proveedores de
servicios, y queremos que usted los conozca. La primera edición de
Local First Fair se realizó en septiembre de 2017, en la histórica Loring
Greenough House. Contamos con la presencia aproximada de 50
miembros, entre los que había masajistas, empresas sin fines de lucro
para el desarrollo comunitario, asesores financieros y artistas locales,
por nombrar algunos. Entre el público hubo más de 500 personas que
compartieron con nosotros comida, música, premios y celebraciones.
La segunda edición de Local First Fair será en junio de 2018” to el 21 de
junio de 2018, ¡y promete ser aun mejor!
En 2017 también creamos el hashtag #jplocalfirst. Este hashtag es una
buena manera de descubrir en las redes sociales más detalles valiosos
de los comercios y organizaciones sin fines de lucro de Jamaica Plain.
JPLF es la única asociación comercial que representa los cuatro
distritos de JP (Egleston, Hyde/Jackson, Centre/South y Forest Hills)
así como a participantes de los barrios adyacentes de Boston. Con
este hashtag usted puede buscar a los miembros de JPLF en las redes
sociales y luego visitarlos en su propio vecindario.
Sabemos que se siente a gusto en Jamaica Plain, en parte por el gran
número de comercios independientes y de organizaciones sin fines de
lucro que hay aquí. Trabajemos como buenos vecinos para mantener la
actividad y diversidad comercial de JP. Le agradecemos que sea parte
de este movimiento.

HELLO and
W E LC O M E

           elcome to the sixth edition of the Jamaica Plain Local
           First (JPLF) business directory! This year’s directory
           is packed with more than 170 locally owned and
independent businesses and nonprofits. Keep an eye on
www.jplocalfirst.org, because new businesses will be added to
the online directory throughout the year. Our members are also
identifiable by the window stickers and car magnets that you will
see throughout the area. Make sure you mention that you found
them through JP Local First.
JPLF is a nonprofit network of locally owned and independent
businesses founded in February 2013. Our mission is to support,
promote, and celebrate our independent business community
by educating the public about the significant economic,
environmental, and cultural benefits of a strong local economy.
Research shows that for every $100 you spend at a locally
owned business, at least $48 will stay in your community and
circulate in the local economy. Talk about buying power!
In 2017, JPLF launched a brand-new annual event: the Local First
Fair. This community-centered evening helps local residents
connect with our member businesses and nonprofits. A stunning
array of entrepreneurs and service-providers work right here in JP,
and we want you to meet them all. The inaugural Local First Fair
was held at the historic Loring Greenough House in Sept. 2017.
We hosted nearly 50 of our members, ranging from massage
therapists to community development nonprofits, to financial
advisors, to local artists. Over 500 people came out to enjoy the
food, music, prizes, and festivities with us. The second Local First
Fair on June 21, 2018 (rain date June 28) promises to be even better!
We also launched the social media hashtag #jplocalfirst in 2017.
Searching for this hashtag is a great way to discover the hidden
gems of JP’s businesses and nonprofits online. JPLF is the only
business association to represent all four JP business districts –
Egleston, Hyde/Jackson, Centre/South and Forest Hills - as well
as welcoming members from adjoining neighborhoods. Use this
hashtag to find JPLF members on social media, then visit them in
your own neighborhood.
We know you love Jamaica Plain, and part of what makes
JP unique is the huge number of fantastic locally owned,
independent businesses and nonprofits that choose to locate
here. Let’s be good neighbors and keep our business community
vibrant and diverse. Thank you for being part of the movement.
Yours Locally,

                             www.jplocalfirst.org                                                                 21
¿POR QUÉ PENSAMOS QUE
                         ELEGIR EL COMERCIO LOCAL
                         DE PROPIETARIOS DE LA
                         ZONA ES TAN IMPORTANTE?
 Realizar sus compras en los negocios de propiedad
 local le permite:
 1. Reinvertir dólares en la economía local. Por cada $100 gastados en
    una empresa de propiedad local, un promedio $48 se reciclan en la
    economía local, en comparación con las cadenas de tiendas que de
    $100 solo queda un promedio de $14 a nivel local (la mayoría en los
    salarios). Las compras locales también son saludables para la economía
    nacional, ya que distribuyen la riqueza de manera más equitativa y
    justa.
    ¿Son las cadenas más baratas? Solo algunas veces, ya que estas
    invierten mucho dinero en estrategias sofisticadas para que el público
    crea que sus precios son más bajos que los demás. Además, cuando
    analizamos el dinero que las cadenas se llevan fuera, comprendemos
    lo que realmente le cuesta a la localidad.
 2. Preservar el carácter único de nuestra comunidad. Las empresas de
    la localidad de propiedad de nuestros vecinos, reflejan y preservan la
    singularidad de la zona de JP. Si hacemos nuestras compras en los
    negocios de la zona, cuyos propietarios son de la localidad, en lugar
    de hacerlo en las tiendas de cadena, podemos preservar mejor la
    diversidad y el carácter de nuestro barrio.
 3. Crear puestos de trabajo y responsabilidad empresarial. En los
    negocios locales e independientes, por cada dólar que ingresa,
    porcentualmente son creados más puestos de trabajo que en las
    tiendas de cadena. Cuando una cadena de tiendas se muda a un
    barrio, inicialmente se crean nuevos puestos de trabajo (a menudo
    con salarios bajos), pero el efecto neto de la región tiende a ser
    menos puestos de trabajo, ya que las empresas locales pierden los
    ingresos que absorben las cadenas pero ellas los invierten fuera de la
    localidad.
 4. Apoyo a la sostenibilidad del medio ambiente. Las empresas de
    propietarios locales de la zona, miembros de JPLF, tienen una mayor
    capacidad de abastecimiento local, lo que en comparación con las
    grandes cadenas, representa una considerable reducción del uso de
    recursos no sostenibles. La deslocalización en las grandes cadenas
    ocasiona movimiento de mercancías desde sitios remotos, causando
    un importante impacto ambiental. Los miembros de JPLF entienden las
    consecuencias de este impacto y por eso prefieren comprarles a los
    productores, proveedores y prestadores de servicios locales.
 5. Fortalecer el tejido comunitario. Las empresas locales
     independientes ayudan a crear una comunidad más conectada e
     interdependiente. Los propietarios locales de la zona se enorgullecen
     de la toma de decisiones empresariales que fortalecen nuestro barrio.
     En tiempos de necesidad, JPLF es nuestro amigo, de nuestras familias,
     de nuestros vecinos y por tanto apoyamos plenamente sus
     actividades.
 Juntos podemos fortalecer nuestra economía. Apoye a nuestro vecindario
 y preserve nuestros recursos locales. Visite jplocalfirst.org para búsquedas

WHY DO WE THINK
                              CHOOSING LOCAL IS SO
                              IMPORTANT?
   When you make your purchases at locally
   owned businesses, you:
   1. Reinvest dollars in the local economy. For every $100 spent at
      a locally-owned business, $48 gets reinvested into the local
      economy, compared to chain stores which only spend $14 of
      that $100 locally (mostly in wages). Shopping local is also
      healthy for the national economy, since it distributes wealth
      more evenly and fairly.
       Are chain stores less expensive? Not always, and chains invest a
       lot in advertising and pricing strategies to make you believe
       their prices are lower. When you account for the money that
       leaves the neighborhood, chain shopping starts to be very
       expensive.
   2. Preserve the unique character of our community. Businesses
      owned locally by our neighbors reflect and preserve the
      uniqueness of the JP area. If we make our purchases at locally
      owned businesses instead of at chains, we help to preserve our
      neighborhood's diversity and character.
   3. Create jobs and responsible entrepreneurship. At local and
      independent businesses, more jobs are created per dollar of
      revenue than jobs created per dollar at chains. When a chain
      moves into a neighborhood, new jobs are created initially
      (often low wage) but the net effect for a region tends to be
      job loss, as local businesses lose revenue to chain stores.
   4. Support environmental sustainability. Locally owned
      businesses are better able to source locally and lessen
      transportation impact than chains, which are standardized
      across hundreds of locations. JP Local First members
      themselves like to buy from local producers, suppliers, and
      service providers because they understand the tremendous
      impact of going local.
   5. Strengthen the community fabric. Locally owned businesses
      make for a more connected and powerfully interdependent
      community. Local owners take pride in making business
      decisions that strengthen our neighborhood. And in times of
      need, it's our friends, families, and neighbors we rely on most.

   Together we can strengthen our economy, support our neighborhood and
   preserve our local resources. Visit www.jplocalfirst.org for citations and for our
   directory of locally owned businesses and more...
