“Throughout the crisis we have been reminded of the special role that small firms play in local areas, looking after their customers, communities and the planet,” commented Michelle Ovens CBEdirector, Small Business Saturday UK. “We are excited to be kicking off this year’s campaign to show our thanks to amazing small businesses. As firms recover from the challenges of the pandemic we are calling upon everyone to get behind the campaign to make it our most impactful Small Business Saturday yet.”

For the past eight years, the 100 businesses chosen have not only received exposure on Small Business Saturday’s social media channels and in the local and national press, but also joined the Small Business Saturday team in London at receptions in Downing Street, House of Lords and the Treasury Drum with the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

The campaign has grown significantly each year with a record £1.1bn spent with small businesses on Small Business Saturday in 2020, and 15.4m people choosing to shop with independents.
