More Than A Directory

Yorkshire Favourites brings together independent businesses and local residents across Yorkshire.

From roofers and plumbers to restaurants, retailers and professional services, every participating business helps strengthen the network.

As more businesses join, we're able to invest more into audience-building campaigns, local promotions and independent business giveaways that encourage residents to discover and support local businesses.

We're not building a directory.

We're building a county-wide community that champions independent businesses.

The result is a larger audience, greater visibility and more opportunities for participating businesses to become the recognised go-to choice in their category.

The result is a growing community where residents find trusted local businesses, and businesses gain greater visibility, recognition and opportunities to become the recognised go-to choice in their category.

We're not simply building a directory.

We're building a county-wide community that celebrates, supports and champions Yorkshire's independents.

Built For Trades & Services

Whether you're a plumber, electrician, roofer, fencing contractor, bathroom installer, landscaper or another local service provider, Yorkshire Favourites helps position your business in front of local customers.

Unlike restaurants and retailers that rely on footfall, trades and services often win work through trust, reputation and responsiveness.

That's where BuzzCard comes in.

Introducing BuzzCard™

• Prefer to send an SMS Text message rather than call

Why Trades & Services Use BuzzCard

Most trades and services businesses look almost identical online.

BuzzCard helps your business stand out by combining:

✅ Professional presentation

✅ Instant enquiry response

✅ SMS follow-up

✅ Better lead conversion

✅ Yorkshire Favourites visibility

✅ Stronger customer trust

It's not just another business card.

It's a customer acquisition tool.

When a homeowner needs a plasterer, builder, landscaper, roofer, electrician or other local specialist, they usually choose the business that:

✓ Looks professional

✓ Responds quickly

✓ Appears trusted

✓ Stands out from the competition

The challenge is that most businesses are competing against dozens of similar companies.

Most Trades Look The Same Online

Yorkshire Favourites helps change that.

Instant Text Response

One Category. One Founder. One Opportunity.

Most trade platforms place your business beside multiple competitors.

Yorkshire Favourites takes a different approach.

Founder Partners receive exclusive category positioning during the launch phase.

This means when a category is taken, potential competitors must wait - potentially permanently.

More Than A Trade and Services Directory

Yorkshire Favourites is building a trusted local business network combining:

• Trades & Services

• Independent Restaurants

• Local Offers & Giveaways

• Community Campaigns

• Trusted Local Recommendations

As Yorkshire residents engage with the platform, visibility creates familiarity — and familiarity builds trust.

Founder Partners secure exclusive category positioning during the launch phase.

From September, Founder Partners may:

1) Continue As A Standard Partner

Remain on the platform and continue benefiting from Yorkshire Favourites visibility and positioning - but with up to 3 direct competitors at their level.

2) Secure Extended Exclusivity

Partners wishing to protect their category position can secure exclusivity through annual partnership options.

This allows businesses to lock out direct competitors and continue benefiting from category leadership.

3) Request a refund

On 01 Sept 2026, if Yorkshire Favourites is not a fit for you.

No questions asked, part on good terms. :)

What are the options in September?

Yorkshire Favourites is currently onboarding Founder Partners across a range of trades and services.

Examples include:

• Plastering

• Bathroom Installation

• Fencing

• Brickwork & Stonework

• Carpentry

• Concrete & Aggregates

And many more.
