Supporting small businesses

ABOUT MADE IN THE SHIRE

We decided to launch Made In The Shire after struggling to shop locally ourselves. As business owners who have been mixing in the Independent Network for years, we knew there were many outstanding companies local to us. However there wasn’t one platform to easily find them.

Lockdown was the turning point. Small businesses needed us. It was time we stopped shopping conveniently and started shopping consciously.

Made In The Shire is an online browsing shop and an annual magazine. Packed full of local brands sharing their stories, top tips and expertise, as well as unique gift ideas to help you with presents for special occasions.

And remember, every time you buy a product or service from a small business someone does a happy dance. We promise you, they really do!
