Indi Local is all about getting visibility to your business. As a mobile trader, it's so easy for people to miss your popups simply because they didn't know you were there, and we're on a mission to change that. Your Indi Local profile lets customers see your pop-up schedule, menu, socials, website, contact info and more, all in one place in a dedicated app that they visit specifically to find street food and local pop up events without having to scroll for hours on social media to find you.

We can’t promise instant queues overnight—but you can definitely increase your visibility, and reach both loyal and new customers without solely relying on passing footfall. Here’s some helpful tips: Encourage your regulars to follow you: By directing your existing customers to follow you on the Indi Local app, you make it easier for them to keep up with your schedule. No more “Where are you this weekend?” messages—just one tap and they’ll know when and where to find you next.
