If you don’t want to live without Bath’s wonderful independent businesses, make sure you show them your support…
Bath’s independent businesses offer choice, tradition and innovation, as well as personal and passionate service. Indies create jobs and have a positive impact on the city’s economy, supporting local artists and designers, food producers and growers.
Supporting the businesses in your local area is a greener choice, and it has never been more important to show Bath’s independent entrepreneurs that you value everything they do.
There are so many great ways to show some love to the independent businesses you wouldn’t want to live without, and many of them don’t cost a penny!
Our independent business directory makes it easier than ever before to remind yourself of old favourites, discover new treasures, plan your next indie trip to the city, and show your support on social media.
GIVE THE GIFT OF INDIES
Christmas is a season for giving, so there’s never been a better time to explore Bath’s Indies and find some unique and special presents for your loved one.
The independent businesses of Bath have curated a unique and personal selection of gifts, choosing a special present from an Indie Shop is a great way to show how much care and attention you have put into your gift giving.
Alternatively why not buy a meal out or a beauty treatment voucher for a loved one who has everything!
SUPPORT ON SOCIAL
Be sure to follow your favourite Indie brands on social media and engage with their content. By liking, commenting on, sharing or saving a post, you help their posts to reach more potential customers.
FIND A NEW FAVOURITE
There are so many independent businesses to discover in Bath. Make a list of Indies you’ve never visited before and pledge to stop by this winter. Your visit will make a world of difference!
SHARING IS CARING
Independent businesses with small marketing budgets benefit enormously from word-of-mouth recommendations. If you have had a great experience, be sure to tell your friends or post an endorsement on social media.
SPEND A FIVER
The Totally Locally £5 concept is all about showing people how easy it is to support their local high streets. If everybody in Bath spent just £5 a week at the city’s independent businesses an extra £17.3 million would be pumped into the local economy per year!
