Vaughan Strong, Support Canadian

Shop local for all your Easter and Passover needs!

With Easter and Passover approaching, we're sure your shopping list is growing - luckily, you can get everything you need right here in Vaughan!

Here's some inspiration to help you plan your holiday shopping:

Support local shops

Whether you're searching for specialty groceries, table décor or sweet treats for loved ones, look no further than Vaughan's wide range of shops. View local store listings at visitvaughan.ca/shop.

Find shopping fuel

After a day of shopping, enjoy a delicious meal and/or dessert at one of Vaughan's restaurants, cafés or bakeries. See what's on the menu at visitvaughan.ca/dine.

Looking for more ways to support local businesses?

Here's how:

  • Dine at a Vaughan restaurant or café, or order takeout or delivery.
  • Shop at a local business, in person or online.
  • Purchase gift cards from local retailers or restaurants.
  • Source local products when shopping with large online retailers.
  • Leave a positive review on your favourite local restaurant or business' online profiles.

Do you own or operate a local business?

As part of the City of Vaughan's ongoing response to sweeping U.S. tariffs, we are now offering businesses free 'Vaughan Strong. Support Canadian' welcome packages filled with materials to help identify local and Canadian-made goods in stores, removing the guessing game for shoppers at the checkout counter.

Demonstrate your patriotism by clearly identifying Canadian-made products so customers out and about can easily support the local economy!
