About the company

Holmdel, New Jersey — a company built around the businesses on the street.

About

A marketplace for the shops that get overlooked

America’s towns are full of small restaurants, retail merchants, and other local business treasures - but all too often, they go unnoticed. At LiveShopBuy, we’re doing all we can to expose these local businesses to consumers and allow them to compete with corporate giants.

Our location based marketplace offers all the services a merchant needs to become a digital marketing “RockStar”, and even sets them up with a digital store to take advantage of the surging popularity of mobile search and ecommerce.

The idea, in one line

“Guaranteed to never find a large national chain”

That is the company’s own promise, from its own description. It is also the clearest statement of what the marketplace was for: not the cheapest price on the internet, but the shop down the road.
