When it comes to sourcing third-party suppliers, sometimes the best options for a restaurant’s essential services are found locally. Often these are the businesses that have been around for generations, providing dry cleaning, groceries, uniforms, and more in many unnoticed ways.
As restaurants in local communities adapt to continued unpredictable supply chain and fulfillment experiences, engaging with fellow small businesses will not only boost local morale and support the community, but help a restaurant operation work more efficiently. Local partners are also likely to reciprocate the business by supporting local restaurants. Creating this cyclical value chain starts with a community-driven approach.
Restaurant owners can search for third-party suppliers through small business resources such as their town’s Chamber of Commerce, small business owner’s association, regional restaurant association, word of mouth, or community groups. Some cities will even have their own local restaurant or small business groups on social media to ask for advice, promote upcoming events, and share business tips.

Fellow small businesses offer produce, products, and services in tighter intervals that national or regional providers cannot accommodate
Restaurants that choose to work with fellow small businesses owners can receive produce, products, and services in tighter intervals that national or regional providers cannot accommodate. This results in fresher ingredients from local farmers; clean uniforms, napkins, towels, and tablecloths at the beginning of each shift from a nearby laundromat; and other timely deliveries completed on a more flexible schedule.
Restaurants benefit by collaborating locally as well as regionally because they can visibly demonstrate their business’ commitment to working through, by, and for their community when they incorporate their partnerships into their marketing messaging, appealing to customers in their area who prefer or are looking for ways to support local businesses.
