From Dr. Artika Tyner (MN): I would like to nominate our local barbershop, Gideon’s Barbershop (MN). This business is an anchor in our community by fostering community building and promoting positive educational outcomes for all children.
At Gideon’s, we show up with purpose every time – not just for the cut, but for the culture—WE DEFINE IT & STAND BEHIND IT! We lead with mentorship, not gatekeeping. We center authenticity, not trends. And we build community, not competition.”
~ Jacob Giddy Deisch, Owner & CEO
People often overlook the positive impacts of independent, locally owned (Indie Local) businesses. The local community that an Indie Local serves may understand these impacts, but those located further away may need to be made aware of these success stories. In future posts, with your help, we will feature a few of the top Indie Locals in the nation.
You can nominate your favorite Indie Local by emailing us today.
