Click the image to visit Jiggity.ca
Jiggity is an online mall, providing a new way for local businesses in the Cumberland (Nova Scotia) and Westmorland (New Brunswick) counties to sell to customers without requiring in-person interactions. Although Jiggity was thought of a long time ago, COVID-19 activated the process of getting Jiggity up and running. Unlike other online shopping platforms, when people in the Cumberland and Westmorland counties shop on Jiggity.ca they know they are supporting their neighbours.
If you would like more information on Jiggity, such as how to participate as a local business please contact Calida Kello at shop@jiggity.ca, or 1-902-397-4688.
