There are many local businesses that are surviving the lockdown, Pandemic restriction by selling on Amazon.
I’m on the Economic Development Commission in our town. Amazon opened a local distribution facility here in 2020. It has provided more than 500 jobs to area residents with a starting wage of $15 hour. They buy local, instead of putting in fuel pumps, as FEDEX and UPS have done they buy from the local gas stations. They keep many local restaurants going with their food orders. They donate to local causes.
Sometimes the corporate giant can be real gentle in the local areas.
