This new campaign makes it easy to shop local in Wilmington

Wilmington Alliance, Westside Grows and Downtown Visions want to make it easy for Delawareans to shop local with the WilmingtonMADE campaign, a network of restaurants, small retailers, local service businesses and local arts.

When you go to WilmingtonMADE.com, you’ll find a business directory and map with links:

If you need an extra incentive to support local businesses, WilmingtonMADE now has a lottery reward system, where you can upload your receipts from participating businesses, or text photos of them to 302-433-6078, for a chance to win a gift card to a local business. One participant who uploads a receipt before March 31 will win a WilmingtonMADE gift basket full of gift cards and items from local businesses.

Some of the participating businesses include:

• Maker’s Alley
• The Queen
• Lafate Gallery
• Addi Naturals
• Chelsea Tavern
• Franks Wine
• Squeezebox Records
• Morgan’s of Delaware
• Pinji’s Cafe

If you have a small business that offers goods or services and want in, you can register your business here.
