Buy Local Impact

Analysis of the project's financials includes totaling payments made to all suppliers, contractors, and employees from New Bedford.  More than 20% of the project budget added to the local economy, and this does not include local small business outside the City of New Bedford. Three jobs are estimated to have been created in New Bedford by this development project's buy local campaign.
