New app for Oadby and Wigston businesses

13 October 2023

Businesses in Oadby & Wigston will have the opportunity to reach more customers through a new app created by the Oadby & Wigston Council.

The new OW Local app, which launches on 1 November 2023 has been designed to support local businesses and encourage residents to shop locally.

Signing up to OW Local is completely free for all Oadby & Wigston businesses, and offers the chance to:

  • Advertise your products, offers and events directly to local residents
  • Allow customers to purchase directly over the app
  • Gain invaluable insights into your customers with a fully functional analytics suite

There’s a place for almost any type of business on the app –  and there are more joining every day!

OW Local has been created in partnership with bubltown, an award-winning technology company which has already had major success creating and implementing such projects for councils throughout the country.

If you want to know more, you can book your business for a personalised visit and onboarding to the app on Wednesday 18 or Thursday 19 October. To book on or for more details email business@oadby-wigston.gov.uk
