The most wonderful time of the year (for shopping) is here – and there’s no better way to celebrate than by supporting the small businesses that make Los Angeles so unique. Small Business Saturday shines a spotlight on the city’s independent makers, family-run shops, and neighborhood staples.
Held the Saturday after Thanksgiving, it inspires Angelenos to “shop small,” keeping dollars circulating close to home and strengthening the backbone of L.A.’s economy. Los Angeles County is all in, too, championing its Shop Local LA County campaign, which highlights local, often immigrant-owned businesses and offers incentives to make shopping small even easier.
Explore these standout L.A. shops that are just perfect for checking off everyone on your holiday list:
