There’s a person behind every local business.

Blue Creek Bay on Lake Coeur d’Alene

Why we’re building a place for the businesses, makers, and people of North Idaho.

Built around this place

North Idaho Shop Local is a project from Jason at Baer Paw Marketing. The idea is simple: make it easier to find businesses nearby and give their owners a place to share what they do.

More than a name in a list

Business profiles bring services, locations, and website links together. Local stories add context: the people behind a shop, the work behind a project, and the ideas that make a business its own.

A growing directory

We are building the directory one reviewed listing at a time. Businesses can submit their information or request a correction. Owners can also inquire about future featured placements and business stories.

Clear about paid features

Paid placements will be labeled as sponsored. Advertising does not create a customer rating or a recommendation. Our goal is to help readers make their own informed choices.
