Small Business Saturday (SMS) is on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. This year SMS is set for November 26, 2022.
Holiday shoppers can help to support SMS by patronizing local small businesses during this time of high traffic and high profitable shopping time. Not only does this help small businesses, it also helps support local economies.
According to the United States Small Business Administration (SBA) website, SMS was founded in 2010 by American Express. In 2011 the SBA became a co-sponsor of the event.
