ienvenido a la cuarta edición de la guía comercial Jamaica
Plain Local First (JPLF)! Este año presentamos una guía más
completa, conteniendo 175 negocios. En ella encontrará
comercios independientes en todas las esquinas de Jamaica Plain.
Además, este año contamos con un sitio web dinámico y lleno de
información que le ayudará a encontrar negocios participantes
donde usted se encuentre. Visite www.jplocalfirst.org regularmente,
ya que la guía en línea se actualizará en el transcurso del año. En la
calle, los negocios participantes se pueden identificar fácilmente
por etiquetas adhesivas en las vidrieras y carteles con imán en los
vehículos de la zona. Cuando concurra a estos comercios, no olvide
mencionar que los encontró por medio de JP Local First.
JPLF es una red sin fines de lucro, que ayuda a comercios locales
independientes desde febrero de 2013. Nuestra misión es apoyar,
promover y celebrar a los pequeños comerciantes de nuestra
comunidad, educando al público sobre los grandes beneficios
económicos, ambientales y culturales que se logran con una fuerte
económica local. Los estudios indican que de cada $100 que se
gastan en un comercio local independiente, por lo menos $48
quedan en la comunicad para circular dentro de la economía
local. ¡Es el poder del consumo!
Un aspecto único de JPLF es que somos la única asociación
comercial que representa los cuatro distritos de JP (Egleston,
Hyde/Jackson, Centre/South y Forest Hills) así como a
participantes de los barrios adyacentes de Boston. Para animarlo
a buscar nuevos puntos de su interés, la guía de este año incluye
el Pasaporte a Jamaica Plain, un divertido concurso que consiste
en visitar a los comercios asociados de JP. Para mayor información
sobre el Pasaporte, vaya a la página 45.
Sabemos que se siente a gusto en Jamaica Plain, en parte por
el gran número de comercios independientes que hay aquí.
Trabajemos como buenos vecinos para mantener la actividad y
diversidad comercial de JP. Le agradecemos que sea parte de este
movimiento.

HELLO and
W E LCO M E
W
elcome to the fourth edition of the Jamaica Plain Local
First (JPLF) business directory! This year’s directory is
larger than ever, with 175 businesses. You can turn to this
guide to find independent businesses in all corners of Jamaica Plain
and adjoining neighborhoods. New this year is a more dynamic
and robust website, which helps you find businesses in your
current location. Keep an eye on www.jplocalfirst.org because new
businesses will be added to the online directory throughout the
year. Our members are also identifiable by the window stickers and
car magnets that you will see throughout the area. Make sure you
mention that you found them through JP Local First.
JPLF is a nonprofit network of locally owned and independent
businesses founded in February 2013. Our mission is to support,
promote, and celebrate our independent business community
by educating the public about the significant economic,
environmental, and cultural benefits of a strong local economy.
Research shows that for every $100 you spend at a locally
owned business, at least $48 will stay in your community
and circulate in the local economy. Talk about buying power!
Compare this to $14 for a multinational chain like Walmart, Whole
Foods or Target.
A unique aspect of JPLF is that we are the only business association
to represent all four JP business districts – Egleston, Hyde/Jackson,
Centre/South and Forest Hills – as well as welcome members
from adjoining neighborhoods. In order to encourage you to seek
out new favorite spots, this year’s directory includes the JPLF Shop
Local Passport, a fun contest that invites you to visit member
businesses throughout JP. You can find the passport and more
information on page 45.
We know you love Jamaica Plain, and part of what makes JP so
unique is the huge number of fantastic locally owned independent
businesses that choose to locate here. Let’s be good neighbors and
keep our business community vibrant and diverse. Thank you for
being part of the movement.
Yours Locally,
Kim Mitchell

¿POR QUÉ PENSAMOS QUE
ELEGIR EL COMERCIO LOCAL
DE PROPIETARIOS DE LA
ZONA ES TAN IMPORTANTE?
Realizar sus compras en los negocios de propiedad
local le permite:
1. Reinvertir dólares en la economía local. Por cada $100 gastados en
una empresa de propiedad local, un promedio $48 se reciclan en la
economía local, en comparación con las cadenas de tiendas que de
$100 solo queda un promedio de $14 a nivel local (la mayoría en los
salarios). Las compras locales también son saludables para la economía
nacional, ya que distribuyen la riqueza de manera más equitativa y
justa.
¿Son las cadenas más baratas? Solo algunas veces, ya que estas
invierten mucho dinero en estrategias sofisticadas para que el público
crea que sus precios son más bajos que los demás. Además, cuando
analizamos el dinero que las cadenas se llevan fuera, comprendemos
lo que realmente le cuesta a la localidad.
2. Preservar el carácter único de nuestra comunidad. Las empresas de
la localidad de propiedad de nuestros vecinos, reflejan y preservan la
singularidad de la zona de JP. Si hacemos nuestras compras en los
negocios de la zona, cuyos propietarios son de la localidad, en lugar
de hacerlo en las tiendas de cadena, podemos preservar mejor la
diversidad y el carácter de nuestro barrio.
3. Crear puestos de trabajo y responsabilidad empresarial. En los
negocios locales e independientes, por cada dólar que ingresa,
porcentualmente son creados más puestos de trabajo que en las
tiendas de cadena. Cuando una cadena de tiendas se muda a un
barrio, inicialmente se crean nuevos puestos de trabajo (a menudo
con salarios bajos), pero el efecto neto de la región tiende a ser
menos puestos de trabajo, ya que las empresas locales pierden los
ingresos que absorben las cadenas pero ellas los invierten fuera de la
localidad.
4. Apoyo a la sostenibilidad del medio ambiente. Las empresas de
propietarios locales de la zona, miembros de JPLF, tienen una mayor
capacidad de abastecimiento local, lo que en comparación con las
grandes cadenas, representa una considerable reducción del uso de
recursos no sostenibles. La deslocalización en las grandes cadenas
ocasiona movimiento de mercancías desde sitios remotos, causando
un importante impacto ambiental. Los miembros de JPLF entienden las
consecuencias de este impacto y por eso prefieren comprarles a los
productores, proveedores y prestadores de servicios locales.
5. Fortalecer el tejido comunitario. Las empresas locales
independientes ayudan a crear una comunidad más conectada e
interdependiente. Los propietarios locales de la zona se enorgullecen
de la toma de decisiones empresariales que fortalecen nuestro barrio.
En tiempos de necesidad, JPLF es nuestro amigo, de nuestras familias,
de nuestros vecinos y por tanto apoyamos plenamente sus
actividades.
Juntos podemos fortalecer nuestra economía. Apoye a nuestro vecindario
y preserve nuestros recursos locales. Visite jplocalfirst.org para búsquedas
en nuestro directorio de empresas locales y para información adicional.

WHY DO WE THINK
CHOOSING LOCAL IS SO
IMPORTANT?
When you make your purchases at locally
owned businesses, you:
1. Reinvest dollars in the local economy. For every $100 spent at
a locally-owned business, $48 gets reinvested into the local
economy, compared to chain stores which only spend $14 of
that $100 locally (mostly in wages). Shopping local is also
healthy for the national economy, since it distributes wealth
more evenly and fairly.
Are chain stores less expensive? Not always, and chains invest a
lot in advertising and pricing strategies to make you believe
their prices are lower. When you account for the money that
leaves the neighborhood, chain shopping starts to be very
expensive.
2. Preserve the unique character of our community. Businesses
owned locally by our neighbors reflect and preserve the
uniqueness of the JP area. If we make our purchases at locally
owned businesses instead of at chains, we help to preserve our
neighborhood's diversity and character.
3. Create jobs and responsible entrepreneurship. At local and
independent businesses, more jobs are created per dollar of
revenue than jobs created per dollar at chains. When a chain
moves into a neighborhood, new jobs are created initially
(often low wage) but the net effect for a region tends to be
job loss, as local businesses lose revenue to chain stores.
4. Support environmental sustainability. Locally owned
businesses are better able to source locally and lessen
transportation impact than chains, which are standardized
across hundreds of locations. JP Local First members
themselves like to buy from local producers, suppliers, and
service providers because they understand the tremendous
impact of going local.
5. Strengthen the community fabric. Locally owned businesses
make for a more connected and powerfully interdependent
community. Local owners take pride in making business
decisions that strengthen our neighborhood. And in times of
need, it's our friends, families, and neighbors we rely on most.
Together we can strengthen our economy, support our neighborhood and
preserve our local resources. Visit www.jplocalfirst.org for citations and for our
directory of locally owned businesses and more...
