The city of Riihimäki, Riihimäki Yrittäjät and Riihimäki Tilat ja Kehitys Oy are launching a campaign to highlight local business activities. The "Buy Riksus, support local" campaign was organized for the first time in 2022 and was well received in the city. The campaign highlights local entrepreneurship and reminds the townspeople to use local services.

"A lively city center and a diverse range of services are important for the city's vitality. Entrepreneurs from Riihimäki deserve their own campaign. I challenge all city residents to use local services and buy, for example, Christmas presents from businesses in Riihimäki", Riihimäki city manager Jouni Eho urges.

The campaign can be seen not only in the shop windows of Riihimäkä companies but also on social media.

"Every Riihimäkelian can show their support for the campaign by sharing a picture of a product or service they bought from a local entrepreneur on social media. With this small act, every Riksu resident can bring out local entrepreneurship", advises Erja Eiro, vice president of Riihimäki entrepreneurs.

In connection with the Some post, you should use the hashtags related to the campaign #OstaRiksu #TuePaikallisti #Riihimäki and #RakasRiksu.
