A new virtual high street service that aims to support independent shops has launched in Aylesbury today. (9/12)
Residents in the area can use 'Click It Local Aylesbury' helping them to buy from any participating local shop and have it delivered on the same or next day.
The scheme has been announced in partnership with Buckinghamshire Council who are helping with retailer acquisition and engagement.
Jocelyn Towns, Deputy Cabinet Member for Town Centre Regeneration at Buckinghamshire Council said:
"Our local communities have some great quality, diverse independent local shops but they face daunting competition from massive online retailers like Amazon. Click It Local makes it easier for local people to order online and support local businesses who are often run by our neighbours and friends. With same day local delivery it’s good for customers and it’s also good for local businesses who can sell their products online using Click It Local as well as through their physical shops."
Over 20 stores have already signed up to Click it Local Aylesbury.
This includes The Flower Bar , Finca El Monte, The Cottage Bakery, Holy Cow, Eco Bonobo, Amelie's Attic, The Farm Deli, Swanbourne Stores, The Stables at Long Crendon, Orchard View Farm.
