"Touch of Timber"
What an amazing experience it is being part of the Love Local Hub. From start to finish you can feel the passion and drive that the founders have for supporting small local business. We have loved every minute of being in the shop and look forward to the next new adventure with Love Local Hub.
"Love Bubbles"
I was one of the 1st to join the Hub back in 2020 and never looked back! The dedication to supporting small business & supporting the community as the heart of the hubs and with amazing locations my products are right there on the Highstreet for people to purchase! It's been great to move from fairs to also an actual presence in a beautiful store and sales prove it to be a success
"Sophies's Jewellery"
Thank you so much Love Local Hub, I'm very grateful to have been accepted into the LLH family since the doors 1st opened in 2020! My sales have been incredible & mostly due to the amazing store, brilliant staff & dedicated owners who invest everything they have to make its standout from the rest! I'm very excited to see what 2023 brings and looking forward to continuing my journey" Milton Keynes
What do we do?
We offer a beautiful creative space in high footfall shopping centres supporting small & Local businesses, independents, start-ups, artisans, and creatives to show case their products to consumers/shoppers allowing them to benefit from a physical bricks and mortar retail store that would normally be out of their reach.
This provides business owners with an opportunity to put their products in main shopping destinations with very little risk as the Hub takes care of everything for them!
We run the stores with dedicated staff, do all the restocking, all the sales process and packaging all you have to do is pop in and set up!
With immediate updates for every sale made in store it's easy to keep track of your success in the hub!
