Read Time:2 Minute, 0 Second

In an inspiring collaboration, Macy’s, a trailblazer in retail, has joined forces with the Gwinnett Women’s Chamber of Commerce to launch a transformative opportunity for local women entrepreneurs. This partnership will provide chamber members, including micro-business owners and solopreneurs without physical storefronts, a coveted platform to display their products and services directly to consumers through special in-store events.

Audrey Bell-Kearney, President of the Gwinnett Women’s Chamber of Commerce, shared her excitement and the emotional significance of this initiative: “This partnership with Macy’s is a beacon of hope and a game-changer for our members. Many of them have never had the chance to showcase their passion and hard work in a retail setting. Now, they can share their dreams and products with a broader audience, right from the heart of Macy’s stores.”

Three special events have been scheduled, providing these talented women the chance to stand in the spotlight and engage directly with the community. The events will kick off in October, with additional gatherings in November and March. These occasions are not just about visibility; they’re about integrating these ambitious entrepreneurs into the broader retail community and celebrating their contributions.

Macy’s is opening its doors wide, facilitating these significant engagements, and is working hand-in-hand with the Chamber to create powerful marketing campaigns. These campaigns aim to not only promote the participating companies but also to build anticipation and educate shoppers about these incredible local businesses well in advance of each event.

Audrey Bell-Kearney added, “We are deeply grateful for this opportunity and eagerly anticipate a lasting and fruitful partnership with Macy’s. This initiative is a testament to the strength and creativity of our local entrepreneurs and adds a vibrant new dimension to our community’s shopping experience.”
