Shop Local and Spread Cheer This Holiday Season In Cincinnati

Updated: Jan 29


2023 Cincinnati Shop Local for holidays

When it comes to supporting local I am ALL about it, and with the holidays upon us, there’s no better time to support Cincinnati's local businesses! Here is the ultimate guide to shopping local this holiday season at some of my favorite places in and around town. With the variety of local shops featured you are guaranteed to find something for everyone, even those that are hardest to shop for, on your holiday shopping list!




Did you know for every $100 spent at a locally owned business, $73 remains in the local economy? Your dollars stay in the community. These business owners appreciate YOU and are thankful for your business because it makes a difference. Tell people where you shopped, spread the word and encourage others to go there. Bonus, no shipping delays! But seriously, think about the meaning behind giving a gift and how great of a feeling it is to see the person receiving it light up with excitement.


Head out to the locally owned shops in your area, walk around, take it all in. Have some fun! Grab a coffee from the local coffee shop, make a day of it and enjoy lunch at one of the local restaurants while you are in the area. Impressed by what’s on the menu? Show your support by purchasing a gift card for a friend or teacher gift.

Remember, people working at these shops can answer questions you have, right then and there, no chat window on the computer. Tell them what things the person you are buying for likes, they can also make suggestions and point out great gift ideas you wouldn’t have thought of.
