We’re proud of our community, and our brilliant small businesses in Corby play a huge role in that. This Independent Retailer Month, we’re celebrating the shops that add a special touch to our area.
These local stores are run by passionate people who bring unique products and exceptional service. Ditch the big brands this month and discover the gems on your doorstep…
What small businesses in Corby can I support?
Known in Corby for their crusty sourdough loaves, delicate pastries that melt in your mouth, and cakes piled high. Their friendly staff will be happy to recommend the perfect treat, whether you’re looking for a morning pick-me-up or a show-stopping centerpiece for a party.
This treasure trove of a gift shop offers something for everyone, with presents for all occasions and little trinkets to treat yourself. Think wooden placemats with carved engravings, dainty bracelets, beautiful ornaments, funky handbags and much more!
Slightly further afield but still close, a fantastic example of a local, Refill Revolution is a fantastic example of a local, reduced-waste shop worth mentioning. They offer plastic-free alternatives, household liquid refills, and dry foods. Stepping inside feels warm, with its wooden counters and a touch of earthiness to create a welcoming haven for eco-conscious shoppers or anyone looking to embrace a more sustainable lifestyle.
If authentic Italian food paired with amazing cocktails (Aperol Spritz and alfresco pasta, please) is your thing, run don’t walk to La Fonte!
Specialising in a variety of hand-crafted, locally sourced food served either in its cozy coffee lounge or as a takeaway, this is the PLACE for a spot of delicious pub grub!
Supporting local makes a difference in Corby
When you shop independent, your money stays in the community. It helps create jobs, supports local families, and keeps our high street interesting and unique.
So this Independent Retailer Month and beyond, enjoy a walk around Corby, explore the shops you may have missed, and discover the difference that shopping local can make. We’re lucky to have shops like this right on our doorstep in Corby’s redesigned town centre, right near Oakley Vale. It’s a town on the up!
