The criteria is simple: all independently-owned small
business located within Norristown’s municipal borders are eligible, as are
home-based businesses owned by Norristown residents, as long as they promote a
healthy local economy.
Businesses who aren’t members of the NBA are listed by name,
what they sell, address and phone. Member businesses receive a deluxe listing
featuring all of the above, plus hours, website, email, Facebook page link, and
any other pertinent info.
We began by listing businesses that were likely to offer goods
people might want for the holiday season – flowers, baked goods, gifts,
decorations like trees and wreaths, etc.
January will be Restaurant month, when we begin a directory
dedicated to Norristown’s eateries, adding approximately one each day.
Later in the year, we’ll add personal service businesses
like barbers, hair and nail salons, auto mechanics, etc., then professional
services like lawyers and architects.
Browsing our directories will you find the best of local
businesses, and help Norristown’s economy in the long run.
If you have a favorite small business that you don’t see
listed yet, mention it in the comments below, or send an email to info@norristownba.org or post it to our
facebook page .
Remember, it must be an independent business (no chains), and must be located in
Norristown (see map). Send us the name and address. We'll look up the rest.
