Independent Retail Directory for Consumers - This directory has been created for people who wish to support independent retail owners and operators.  Every one of the over 48,000 businesses listed in this directory is independently owned and operated.  We encourage small business owners and managers to list their business within this directory to become a part of the Internet's only search engine and directory where the average small business doesn't have to compete with the "Big Box" retailers.  As a consumer, you can take comfort and be assured that you are supporting independent retail business.  Be sure to visit our Small Business Resource Center for useful ebooks and software for small businesses and our blog for informative information.
