Why Yocal?

Big box retail & chains are great money machines, but they are turning our cities into cookiecutter-ville. Locally-owned, independent businesses are the heart and soul of America. Consumers want to support these businesses but have no platform to turn to find them. 

Big Tech Won't Help

National corporations have completely diluted the term "local". On top of that, current platforms depend on revenue from e-commerce, corporations, and franchises.
