Support Small This Christmas

Supporting Small Businesses

Here at Bears4u we are a small, family run business. We work very hard to make sure all of your orders are delivered safely and efficiently. We go the extra mile to make sure your teddy gift looks very special. We appreciate the business you give us and like to give you the best service in return.

It’s been a hard year for businesses, especially those that have been forced to close due to all the restrictions. We feel for the high street. When we take a trip to our local town, retail has taken a real battering, and many independent stores have been forced to close.

With upcoming big online events, such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday, where large online retailers like Amazon and John Lewis battle it out to slash prices, it’s never been more important to shop small.

Supporting small means supporting a family
Many small businesses are family run, operating on a much smaller scale. We’ve all heard about a small business owner doing a happy dance when they receive an order, but it’s not only that, supporting a small business means you are helping an entrepreneur to live their dream and support their family. Here at the Bears4u Orphanage, all the bears have a big bear hug everytime one of their friends is adopted.

Quality and care
Many small businesses go above and beyond when it comes to customer care, they see each order come in, they can fix little issues then and there or answer queries you might have. We love receiving items from small businesses because they are always packaged beautifully, every attention to detail taken. We like to make sure our teddy gifts are delivered like this as well.

Shop local small
You want to shop and live near places that actually mean things to people; places that have a real effect on communities. You can feel when someone really cares about the neighbourhood they’re running a business in. Especially here in the Lake District where we are…there are some wonderful local small businesses.

Finding something different
Many small businesses offer something different,  different to what you could find on Amazon or at a chain store. An extra special gift, something handmade, an innovative product…you know you are going to find something unique when you buy small.

Supporting each other
Do we really need any other reason to buy from a small business except this? We all need each other more than ever at the moment and if that means supporting a friend that hand pours candles, or a neighbour that is selling Christmas cards, then lets help each other.

As always a massive thank you to all of YOU who support US and for all the lovely feedback that we get we really do appreciate it. We love to support small businesses whenever we can and some of our Teddy Bear suppliers are actually family businesses. These are some of our favourites:

White Fox Teddy Bears are a small local business who make stunning handmade teddies for us.

Mary Meyer Soft Toys are a family run company selling beautiful soft toys that we add our personalised jumpers to, making them very special gifts.

Be My Bear are a small company who make our lovely Voice Message Teddies that are very popular, especially at this time of year.

Other ways you can help to support a small business that you have had good service from, is to recommend them to your friends or write a nice review for them. We know this takes extra effort and really appreciate every review we get.
