'Vis Unita Fortior'. United we Stand. The motto of Stoke on Trent and the true meaning our of our proud city. But how many businesses based in Stoke on Trent 'stick together' through these tough economic times?
The Keep It Local campaign was founded by a few local businesses with the idea of local businesses using local businesses where possible. How many of your suppliers are based outside of the ST postcode? We believe the importance of keeping our business local shouldn’t be underestimated. By keeping business local, we can support each other through these times of economic uncertainty and stimulate growth within our city.
Why go anywhere else?
We have some great Companies locally and ‘Keep It Local’ campaigns for us all to stand together and ‘Keep our Business Local’
What do we do?
We are creating a directory of local businesses who are committed to use the services or buy the products (where possible) of those in the ST postcode. Quite simply, the directory on this website gives information on local Companies or tradesmen committed in our campaign. They themselves use local Companies where possible for their business needs and as such, will offer you discounts should you do the same. Mention ‘Keep It Local’ to receive their discounts when you contact them and if your business is in the ST postcode, you will receive their discounts.
Want to be in the directory?
There are two ways to be included in the directory. The first is to call us on 01782 454535 and ask about our promotional advertising rates. Not only will you be advertised on this site, you will also be including in our monthly business newsletters and in our Business Center in London Road, Stoke.
The second way is by existing member referral or special invite. Should you make a purchase from an existing member you will be invited to be included to advertise your business in our directory free of charge and take advantage of extra business from our current members. We simply ask that you use our members for your future business needs to remain as a Keep it Local Member. For example, should you need business mobiles phones in the future, you would use a member from our Business Communications page, or for design and print you would use a member from our Design & Print page. It’s that simple! And don’t forget, other members would need to use your business for future needs too!
