#EidManaoPakistan #BuyLocalPakistan – A Call for Pakistani Consumers and Businesses to Come Together for the Economy

In these uncertain times, with so much at stake, most of us are hardly thinking about any celebrations of any kind. However, something that this pandemic has taught us is that we do not exist as individuals, but as a collective species. The consequences of one individual’s actions, no matter how big or small, hold the power to have an impact on all of humanity.

If a single person’s actions can cause the whole world to come to a standstill, similarly, one person’s good deeds can have the power to impact thousands of lives.

The universe is a complete unique entity. Everything and everyone is bound together with some invisible strings. Do not break anyone’s heart; do not look down on those weaker than you. One’s sorrow at the other side of the world can make the entire world suffer; one’s happiness can make the entire world smile.

– Shams Tabrizi

In this climate, we all need hope, positivity and happiness. Which is why we would like to encourage everyone who has the buying power to spend money this Eid, to shop local. Opt for small and medium businesses when making your purchase decision. Home based sellers, darzans, online e-commerce stores, homemade food delivery services, local restaurants and brands.

Give yourself a reason to celebrate and also help the economy, so that your money can trickle down to those who need and deserve it most.

We are counting on your support to turn this idea into a movement that can transcend beyond this occasion of Eid and can change our buying habits to ultimately help Pakistan’s economy.
