Greater Raleigh Merchants Association - Shop Local Raleigh

Shop Local Raleigh is the coolest! I am a local entrepreneur and a Raleigh native. I have dealt with numerous business oriented organizations and SLR is by far my favorite. Jennifer Martin's drive, network and love for her/our city is confounding! Anytime I am in need of advise or reach out for a connection or two, she or another member of this awesome and growing gang promptly delivers. SLR has been instrumental to the success of my business and I am proud to be a member. Speaking of members; this is one jovial group of people who are truly amazing. I have met many friends and endless resources attending all of the fun (not stuffy) events. If you take advantage of what Shop Local Raleigh has to offer you will be amazed. This is a group that cares about your personal welfare and will jump through hoops to help you any day of the week. Thanks SLR! The past three years with you all sure have flown by.

Being a member of Shop Local Raleigh has been an amazing experience for my business, The English Garden, but it's been an equally rewarding experience for me personally. Jennifer and the SLR Team make a concerted effort to connect like minded business owners and help foster a sense of community and camaraderie. I was so honored to join the SLR Board of Directors in 2017 and have already make a host of new fun friends and colleagues!

As small business owners, this organization is invaluable! They offer so many resources from relevant tech Tuesdays to regular networking to personal recommendations and hookups with other local businesses. Our learning curve is greatly reduced with the team there! Thanks again!

We joined Shop Local Raleigh because I was so impressed with the advertising campaign during Christmas urging local spending. Sine then we have realized how much more they do, from networking to arranging group advertising at special prices, always promoting the local benefits. Jennifer and the whole staff are helpful and courteous.
