Small Business Saturday is November 25th!

By Melissa Hucal and edited by: Elisa Posniack, Publisher Macaroni KID NW Bergen County, NJ November 6, 2023
Small Business Saturday is about investing in the community where you live, play and work.

Founded by American Express in 2010, this day is celebrated every year on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  This year, Small Business Saturday is on November 25th.

Small Business Saturday has evolved into a celebration of small businesses and local communities across the United States. The momentum is growing. The Small Business Saturday Facebook page currently has more than 3.2 million likes!

As a resource in and for the community, Macaroni Kid is a strong supporter for Small Business Saturday.  We’re encouraging everyone to play a role in supporting small and hyper-local businesses.

Shop, eat or play at your favorite neighborhood business on Small Business Saturday and throughout the year.

Tell people about it! Small businesses are many times the “hidden gems” of a community, but they don’t need to be. Share your experiences  (and your purchases!) with your friends, talk about it on your social networks, and let everyone you meet know about these great, local businesses. 


While there are simply too many amazing local businesses to list, some of my favorite, NW Bergen County businesses are:

Ernie's Ice Cream in Mahwah, NJ

Secor Farms in Mahwah, NJ

Allendale Bar and Grill in Allendale, NJ

Wholistic Paws in Ramsey, NJ

Tons of Toys, Wyckoff, NJ

Abma's Farm, Wyckoff, NJ

**Located in the next town to NW Bergen County, Suffern's Small Business Saturday event is tons of fun for the entire family! Grab your goodie bag and begin the annual scavenger hunt of visiting multiple area businesses in order to be entered in a raffle for gift cards to area restaurants and businesses!
