Choose Local this May

Shop local, Choose Moreton Bay. Support local businesses.

Choosing local isn’t just a purchase - it’s an investment in your community.

This May, City of Moreton Bay is encouraging residents to get behind local businesses as part of Queensland Small Business Month. Every dollar spent locally supports jobs, strengthens our economy and helps small businesses thrive.

How the community can get involved

You can support local businesses by:

  • shopping at local stores, cafés and service providers
  • choosing local businesses when booking services
  • sharing your favourite finds on social media
  • tagging local businesses and use #ChooseLocal and #QSBM2026
  • leaving a positive review on their Google or social media pages
  • recommending a business to friends.

Look out for businesses displaying Choose Local signage and show your support.

By backing local businesses, you’re helping keep Moreton Bay a vibrant place to live, work and visit.
