The Opportunity
The ShopAppy team are passionate about their local high streets and markets and ensuring that local businesses, town and city centres thrive.
Each ShopAppy business pays a monthly subscription dependent on the business type. This enables the ShopAppy businesses to easily promote their products or services on a dedicated, location specific website and app ensuring customers have direct access to their local businesses to browse businesses, book services and buy products with easy click and collect after normal business hours.
There are no limits to the number of products or services that can be advertised on the ShopAppy website.
ShopAppy is backed by a strong team who will work with the franchisees so that they can make the most out of the opportunity to benefit their local businesses and their communities.
A Shopappy Franchise is about:
- Connecting with your local community
- Having a mutually beneficial arrangement with shopkeepers and local businesses
- Helping to stop your local town being swallowed up by big corporations
- Being your own boss and being 'Appy'
ShopAppy works by enabling local independent shops to show information, products and services they have for sale in their town in one place. ShopAppy aims to encourage customers to go into town and use the shops nearby. The ShopAppy site brings all the products together into categories so that items can be search for easily.
ShopAppy works because it helps our local independent shops and businesses stay in our towns. ShopAppy prefer a world where local shops, local businesses and local communities support each other.
