Success Stories
Being part of Love Local has been a great experience.
As a maker, having my products in a physical store has been so rewarding — and the team’s support, advice, and flexibility have made a big difference.
They provide store fittings, real-time sales data, and prompt payments, which makes running my small business easier.
Thanks, Love Local, for backing small brands and creating space for us to grow.

The level of professionalism, flexibility and consideration for not only me, but countless other small business owners, proves that Love Local really does understand and respect the hustle and workload for sole traders. They go above and beyond making sure that we’re taken care of on every level. An added bonus is how easy going and relaxed of an organisation they run! Whether you’re a seasoned collective participant, or looking to kick off selling in collectives, I’d highly recommend trying Love Local!

I have joined the love local since august last year at Eastland Store. The team is easy to communicate with. The system setup is very easy and simple. As a vendor, we can reach out to the team very easily through Facebook, Instagram and Email. The team is helpful to set up and supportive to vendors. I have joined the Bayside Store 2025. The payment is always on time.
