At IBSC, corporations and chains are banned — and proudly so.

Our community exists to lift up independents who pour their heart into what they do. Every penny stays closer to home, supporting people, not shareholders.

❤️ Join the Movement

IBSC isn’t just another marketing platform — it’s a movement.
A movement that keeps money circulating locally, grows loyal Supporters, and gives independents the tools to thrive in a digital-first world.

Harrogate District is where it begins.
Your brand could be one of the founding names remembered when the Independent Business Supporters Club became a nationwide success story.

Win FREE Indie Products

for a Year 2026!”

Each participating Independent Merchant will feature as the *exclusive representative of their product category meaning:

✅ No competitors in your niche.
✅ Full exposure across every IBSC Harrogate campaign channel.
✅ Direct connection to thousands of local Supporters who actively choose to support independents.

*exclusive definition > the ONLY Indie business in your product category that offers UK-wide shipping.

To be absolutely upfront and transparent IBSC will allow multiple LOCAL INDENDENT businesses on board - because it would not be fair to deny local Indie business access to an audience of local Indie supporters.

But understand their presence on the IBSC platform helps your business too!

So you own or manage an Indie Coffee merchant business.

Local residents (Supporters) will search for or stumble across a local Indie Coffee Merchant based in the Harrogate District.

They may visit them in person and purchase Indie Coffee and become a regular long term customer - so IBSC Harrogate District will bring new customers to their doors.

However, some of these coffee loving local residents will not have time or transport to easily visit a local coffee merchant in person

- but your Indie chocolate shop will offer convenient shipping.

So do you see how this is a WIN for both the local Indie coffee merchant AND your UK-wide delivery Indie coffee business?

"A rising tide lifts ALL boats" - as the saying goes - and this is the ethos of IBSC
