July is Independent Retailer Month, a time for us all to show our appreciation and support for local small businesses. This month-long tribute encourages everyone to shop at independent retailers, and recognize their vital role in the economy.📊 Globally, independent retailers employ a significant portion of the workforce. In the EU, SMEs - including many independent retailers - employ around 66.6% of the workforce; in the U.S., they employ about 51%. At Nayax we understand the importance of local retailers. We go out to the field, listen to them, and help them find complete payment solutions to conveniently manage their businesses, maximizing profits, efficiency, and time. Whether you're looking for specialty foods🍇, clothing👔, or books 📚, independent retailers offer goods and services that are not found in larger stores. So, this month especially, go thank your local independent retailer by promoting their business. Happy #IndependentRetailerMonth ! 😁
