About Shop Small
Shop Small brings shoppers, business owners and civic leaders together to support small businesses and give back to their local communities. Shopping small adds up to big things, and together we can make an impact.
At American Express, we believe that small businesses and the joy they bring are at the core of every neighbourhood. That's why we created Shop Small, to encourage people to show some love for their local high street by choosing to shop at small and local businesses.

American Express and Shop Small commissioned research with GlobalData to reveal the top 10 UK high streets for independent shops, including St Mary's Street and Bailgate in Lincolnshire, Gloucester Road, Bristol and Oldham Street in Manchester.
Small businesses are the heart of Britain, bringing our communities to life. We’re proud to be founder and Principal Supporter of Small Business Saturday, championing local businesses nationwide.
