About Shop Local
The Bridge Behind the Brand
Back in 2007, we managed websites for indie retailers and brands. Every week, we manually added products to their sites—a time-consuming, expensive, and repetitive task.
One weekend at Moran’s Pub in NYC, I realized: multiple stores were paying us to upload the same brand products. What if a brand could upload products once, and all partnered stores could access them instantly?
No software did this. So I sketched a solution on a napkin: brands would share product data and retailers would display it automatically. We built a prototype. Within months, two stores and eight brands were sharing products via our digital data 'bridge' service.
Today, 1,495 retailers use Shop Local to easily sell 73,642 products from 113 partner brands. We’ve powered 90,000+ gift registries and helped our clients sell millions.
Our mission started on that napkin—and it’s still our focus: make running an online store easier for indie merchants.
We named our platform Shop Local because we believe in supporting indie businesses and their communities.
We’d love for you to join us.
Shop local,
Jason & the Shop Local Team
