Convert 'shop local' demand into increased local spend

Why introduce a town & city gift card program?

Towns and cities around the UK are capitalising on the ‘shop local’ opportunity and diverting online spend back into their local economies with Town & City Gift Cards. Support for local has never been stronger, with both consumers and organisations. Consumers realise that support for local keeps the businesses they love open, and their town or city thriving. And organisations understand that choosing local enables them to take an active role in the success of their community. The shop local movement is happening right now. And a Town & City Gift Card program helps to convert this sentiment into increased local spend.

“In the past, I’ve had other multi-store gift cards but they’re a bit niche because it’s just the big stores. I like Town & City Gift Cards because they have the little independent businesses too. I like the variety that it offers the recipient, they can choose where to spend it, and spend a bit here and there.”

“Previously, we’ve used John Lewis vouchers. Now, we often use our local Town & City Gift Card for Christmas rewards, and to thank staff upon leaving Shell. It has been a really appreciated gift for our team that caters for a variety of ages and interests.”

“Student Unions and education providers are increasingly looking for alternatives to Amazon, stopping back from consumerism to more local options. My advice would be to make the move, and give back to your community with your local Town & City Gift Card.”
