Be a Local Hero!

Own/operate a Shop Local website, helping local independent businesses compete online.

.

The steady migration of consumers to online shopping, whether it’s actually to make purchases or even just to discover where to find products and services, has increasingly threatened local independent businesses who lack the resources to compete on the internet against big corporate chains and web-based giants. The pandemic has accelerated the consumer trend, and exaggerated the gap between big, powerful companies and local businesses. Since 2008, ShopCity.com has offered a platform of powerful marketing tools to those local businesses on destination Shop Local websites, helping them be competitive by leveraging strength in numbers. Local businesses need us now more than ever before.
