Shop Concord Gift Card Program Back In Business

Press release from the City of Concord:

May 22, 2023

CONCORD, CA — The City of Concord and the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce are relaunching the popular Shop Concord program to support the city’s small businesses by encouraging residents to shop locally over Memorial Day weekend and into the summer. The Shop Concord program helps increase sales for local businesses while also benefiting consumers and providing a boost to the local economy.

Shop Concord is relaunching thanks to a $10,000 contribution from the City of Concord to supply a bonus gift card with every purchase. While supplies last, receive a free $50 Shop Concord bonus card with every original $100 gift card purchase, a free $25 Shop Concord card with every $50 gift card purchase, or a free $10 Shop Concord card with every $20 gift card purchase. Gift cards can be used for purchases at any participating business. The bonus gift cards with purchase are available until the allotted $10,000 is distributed.

The e-gift cards can be purchased on the Shop Concord Yiftee page, which includes a list of participating merchants. The cards purchased can be redeemed at any participating Concord business. The digital nature of the gift cards allows customers to split the original and bonus portions to keep for themselves or gift to others via text or email.

"Take advantage of the Shop Concord Program,” said Sifu Steffani Tomizaki, Co-Owner/Manager for Tomizaki’s Champions Kung Fu. “It's a great way to support local businesses. We have had folks use it for classes, private lessons and merchandise."

Concord local business owners can sign up anytime for free to participate in the Shop Concord program. Instructions for how to become a participating merchant are online at www.concordfirst.com/shopconco...
