About The Local Boom – Canada’s Best Gift Shop for All Canadian Brands

Welcome to The Local Boom, an original All-Canadian gift shop based in the heart of Mount Pleasant, Vancouver. Since September 2017, we've made it our mission to support local by offering a curated collection of Canadian-made gifts, self-care essentials, and home goods—all from independent Canadian makers and small businesses.

Join the "Shop Local Canada" Movement

We started as an online store in 2017, proudly becoming one of the first platforms in Canada dedicated to exclusively selling products from All Canadian Brands. Our goal? Make it easy—and fun—for shoppers across the country to support local creators, artisans, and eco-conscious businesses.

As per the Internet Archive (Wayback Machine), Local Boom was operating as a Canadian-only online gift shop as early as September, 2017. You can view the archived snapshot here: View the archive

From day one, our mission has been simple—support Canadian makers, keep dollars local, and make it easy to gift Canadian nationwide.
