ABOUT
Shop local like you mean it! When you choose to support a small, local business instead of a giant corporation, you make an investment in the Omaha community. According to Nerd Wallet, small businesses generate $68 of local economic return for every $100 spent with them. So, whether you’re an avid Small Business Saturday shopper, or you’re just looking for the best local shops to frequent, we’ve got you covered. We’re Omaha Places; helping you enjoy everything local is literally our job.
We’ve broken this guide down into the following categories:
Home Goods
Stationery & Art
Clothing & Accessories
Kids
Pets
Plants
Food & Drink
Disclaimer: We’ve tried our best to include as many local shops, makers, and businesses as we can, but there are truly so many amazing options that it’s nearly impossible to include them all! Please don’t be discouraged if your favorite is not included. This blog post is meant to serve as a road map to supporting local in Omaha, and we hope it’s a great starting point!
