Shop Local in Plymouth

Since the after-effects from the pandemic hit small businesses across the country, we have been doing our bit to help our local, independent businesses in and around Plymouth. We would like to start January off in the most positive way possible by sharing some of our brilliant local businesses.

Supporting local businesses not only keeps the shops running and shop owners happy but it also has positive impacts on the local community by creating more jobs and footfall to the local area.

Spending money in a local shop helps to circulate the money around the community, meaning that every £10 you spend in-store, the shop owner on average, spends £50 in restaurants, pubs, food grocers etc.

The customer service you receive from independent shops and businesses is far more personal than if you were to shop at chain companies. If done right, they both share great customer service however, you are more likely to build a better relationship with the shop owner because they have your full attention. They are more likely to recommend things to you if you are a frequent shopper and small touches like gift wrapping are more common.

With this in mind, make sure to check out Captain RugWash, AsTec Models, Steve Evanz Art & Illustrations and BW Architecture for all your local wants and needs!

Plymouth offers a wide range of independent businesses, all only a stone’s throw away, therefore, we have gathered together a range of brilliant independent businesses, all local to Plymouth for you.
