Stacy Mitchell and Olivia LaVecchia of the Institute for Local Self-Reliance just completed a Vermont tour on “Amazon’s Stealth Invasion of Vermont.” We’ve covered this before and will have more on this topic in an upcoming show. This week, LaVecchia will talk about newly unveiled results of a survey of over 850 independent retailers in 49 U.S. states, in which they describe how independent businesses are responding to the changing landscape — and about their advantages vis-à-vis retail chains and online retailers.
