LOVE LOCAL SPOTLIGHT


While we have a short pause on the threat of tariffs from the U.S., we can still do much more to strengthen our own local, provincial and national economy by supporting local businesses! The Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce encourages Sooites to Shop Local and connect with local retailers, all of whom also carry a variety of Canadian products! (Scroll to the bottom for resources)



SUPPORT LOCAL will be a regular feature in our communications going forward. If your small business would like to be included in a future email, please contact info@ssmcoc.com and include a short 2-3 sentence description.

Hogan’s Homestead


Spencer + Erica Hogan started their homestead as a hobby and a dream that one day it would grow with their family. One tap turned into two, then turned into hundreds.
