ShopAppy boost for Pickering businesses

Thanks to the York and North Yorkshire Growth Hub, ShopAppy.com is now operating free for 12 months in the town centre.

The platform is not just about shops. ShopAppy can help services, trades, B2B businesses, chefs, pop-ups, entertainers, and market stalls with bookings, click and collect, home delivery and can host virtual events to support local artists and producers to secure wider engagement.

It is already established in 150 UK towns and growing rapidly.

The platform gives local businesses the tools to fight back with an effective and engaging online presence – increasing (digital) footfall and spend.

The system is quick and simple to use for both businesses and customers.

Neil Armstrong from Trail Blazer Outdoors in Pickering says: “We’re really looking forward to working with ShopAppy.com and having the opportunity to work collaboratively with other businesses to show what Pickering has to offer and ultimately, make life easier for our customers.

“It will enable retailers to get online easily and serve the people of Pickering who have found it difficult to get products and deliveries of products during lockdown.”
