Shop Local, Support Camden: Join Us in the Buy Camden 1st Movement

Cooper is proud to support Mayor Vic Carstarphen’s Buy Camden 1st initiative, which aims to help Camden-based small businesses grow by providing them with purchasing opportunities whenever possible. As part of this commitment, we encourage our team members to consider Camden-based small businesses when fulfilling their personal needs for goods and services.

Finding these businesses is easier than ever. Whether you’re looking for a birthday cake, flowers, chocolates, printed materials, or more, simply search by business classification in the BuyCamden1st.com Business Directory.  More than 100 businesses are listed—ready, willing, and able to provide you with quality goods and services.

Further, businesses who have earned the Camden Verified badge have leveled up their ability to do business by undergoing a rigorous vetting process led by the Latin American Economic Development Association (LAEDA). These businesses are specially designated in the directory and are well-equipped to meet your purchasing needs.

We hope you will join us in supporting Camden-based small businesses through the Buy Camden 1st initiative.

Note: Businesses listed are not vetted or endorsed by Cooper. This program is made possible through the support of the City of Camden.
