Why is it better to support local businesses?

Celebrate National Independent Retailer Month by supporting small businesses.

July celebrates Indie Retailer Month, which encourages consumers to shop local and celebrate independent retailers, creating more sustainable communities.

As Bristol’s oldest independent health food store, here at Wild Oats in Bristol, we are passionate about supporting small businesses to celebrate our wonderful community of local suppliers and producers.

Here’s why it's better to support local businesses:

  1. Personal touch: Small businesses offer unique products and personalised services that you won’t find in chain stores.
  2. Local economy: Your support keeps money within the community, creating jobs and fostering local prosperity.
  3. Sustainability: Independent retailers often have more sustainable practices and source locally, reducing environmental impact.
  4. Community connection: These businesses build relationships and create a vibrant, thriving community.

To honour Independent Retailer Month, we would like to give a shout out to some of the wonderful natural remedy and beauty brands that are available from Wild Oats health food store in Bristol.
