Canadian Gifting, Reimagined
Gifting is about connection — and what better way to connect than with products that tell a story and support a cause? When you give a gift from The Local Boom, you're doing more than just spreading cheer. You're supporting 100's of Canadians.
Tucked into Vancouver’s vibrant Mount Pleasant neighborhood, Local Boom is more than just a gift shop—it’s an experience. Designed to showcase the best of Canadian innovation, the shop features a handpicked collection of skincare, home goods, gifts, and wellness essentials from indie Canadian brands. Each item is carefully vetted, ensuring it's ethically made, cruelty-free, and composed of high-quality, natural ingredients.
In a world where global e-commerce giants dominate our screens and purchasing decisions, it’s easy to overlook the powerful, positive impact of shopping local. But behind every Canadian-made product is a story—one of passion, community, resilience, and sustainability. One such story is that of Barefoot Venus, a wellness and beauty brand handcrafted in Kelowna, British Columbia, and proudly carried by The Local Boom Gift Shop in Vancouver.
If you are from Canada or settled down in this nation, let us tell you that Canada stands renowned for sustainability and local handicraft support. Thus, living in this country, when you choose natural Canadian handmade soap, organic Canadian handmade bath bombs, and relaxing bath salts made in Canada, you enjoy not just premium quality, eco-friendly products but also share your bit in favor of Canadian crafters along with local industries.
