There’s something special about discovering local businesses: the unique finds, the personal touches, and the stories behind every product. But some days, your schedule (or your energy level) calls for a cozy blanket, a quiet night in, and the simple joy of online shopping.
Now, you can do both.
Discover Bradenton just launched Shop Manatee, an online collection of local businesses with e-commerce stores, making it easier than ever to support the community while still enjoying the convenience of shopping from home. You'll find everything from boutique apparel and skincare products to home décor, specialty foods, and thoughtful gifts... all just a few clicks away.
We've made it easy for you to get the convenience of online shopping without handing your money over to Amazon or some faceless corporation. Instead, your purchases support someone who lives here, works here, and puts their heart and soul into every item they create or sell. Every order, big or small, supports the business owner's families and helps them keep their doors open and their dream alive.
All of the businesses listed in Shop Manatee are part of the Discover Bradenton Business Network, which means they're locally owned and actually invested in this area. These aren't drop-shippers or resellers. They're your neighbors, the people you see in the grocery store, and families whose kids go to school with yours.
Shop Manatee is available year-round, so you can support local whenever the mood strikes. But with the holidays approaching and gift lists growing, now is the perfect time to explore what your favorite Manatee County businesses have to offer.
And if you have a local business with an e-commerce store, we would love to add you! Contact us to learn more.
