Local Business
A trusted way to show up, connect, and grow locally
Loci helps local businesses and trades become more visible, more connected, and more embedded in the communities they serve. It’s often hard for small, independent businesses to be seen by local residents, especially when larger chains dominate search results, social feeds, and local visibility. Loci offers a different path, one that reflects your place in the community.
Why local businesses matter to communities
Local businesses are essential to community life. They do more than provide goods and services, they shape the feel of our neighbourhoods, support local livelihoods, and often go the extra mile when it counts.
During the pandemic, we saw just how important these businesses are. Many stepped up delivering essentials, checking in on vulnerable residents, or simply staying present in uncertain times. And yet, despite their contributions, they were among the hardest hit.
Local businesses help grow Social Capital – the connections, trust, and shared sense of belonging that communities rely on. Places with strong social capital tend to have healthier economies, higher civic participation, and greater resilience in times of crisis.
Loci is here to help sustain and grow this everyday value by helping businesses stay visible and connected.

Why Loci matters for local business
Local businesses rely on support from the people who live nearby, and research shows that nearly 90% of customers at local shops come from within just a few miles. But visibility isn’t guaranteed. Larger chains often dominate online spaces, making it harder for smaller businesses to reach their own neighbours.
Loci changes that. By offering a trusted, community-based space for discovery and engagement, Loci helps independent businesses be found by the people most likely to visit, return, and recommend. Local offers, updates, and presence on Loci feel natural and relevant, encouraging the kind of everyday support that keeps small businesses going and local places thriving.
