Downtown Waxhaw is celebrating all things local during Independent Retailer Month—and Indie Retail Weekend is the highlight!

Join us for three days of extended hours, pop-up events, special offers + a chance to win downtown gift cards & prizes.

What is Independent Retailer Month?

Independent Retailer Month is a nationwide campaign that shines a light on the small businesses that give our communities their heart & soul. In Downtown Waxhaw, we’re proud to be home to more than 120 independently owned businesses—from antique shops and artisan boutiques to eateries and breweries.

When you shop small, you:

➜ Support local jobs (nearly 800 in Downtown Waxhaw alone!)
➜ Keep money in our community (68¢ of every $1 stays local)
➜ Help fund events, causes, and nonprofits
➜ Preserve the charm & character that makes Waxhaw unique

Why it Matters.

Indie Retail Weekend is more than a sales event. It’s a reminder of what makes Waxhaw special: passionate people, unique places & a community that shows up for each other.

Come stroll, shop, and celebrate the indie spirit that makes Waxhaw shine. More details coming soon!

When you shop local, you’re not just making a purchase—you’re investing in your community. Let’s keep our money out of the boardrooms of distant corporations and put it where it belongs—right here at home.
