Business directory of businesses who make or sell products made in Georgina

Buying Georgina Made products supports local businesses and their employees – it grows the local economy, which feeds money back into the services residents of Georgina rely on, like schools, roads, and health care. 

To highlight the many makers, growers and manufacturers of products made in Georgina, the Town’s Economic Development and Tourism office has created an online directory that provides an additional platform for businesses to feature their products online, giving more ways for residents and businesses to shop and support local. It also aims to foster an environment of collaboration between businesses as it will feature retailers who sell products.
