Buying local: essential support for your community

In this age of globalisation, questions about our shopping habits are frequent and legitimate. Today’s online offer is extremely vast and the price battle is raging. The economic impact and ecological consequences are not utopian. Letzshop sheds some light on the subject and demystifies certain beliefs, with complete transparency.

Buying local doesn't cost more!

On Letzshop, your local merchants continue to develop a range of products and services that allow you to be delivered quickly, or to collect your purchases in a few clicks from their shops. Whether you’re looking for a pair of shoes, a multimedia accessory, a cosmetic product, something to organise a last-minute aperitif or a gift card, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for.

So what’s behind a Letzshop order?

First of all, it’s worth pointing out that the Letzshop national platform is obviously local, and that it was created in 2018. The project is supported by the Ministry of the Economy, 17 towns and municipalities in the Grand Duchy, the Luxembourg Confederation and the Chamber of Commerce.

Many of the local brands on the marketplace are ‘Made in Luxembourg’ certified. This is your guarantee of quality and 100% local products and services.

Buying local, a virtuous economic circle

Favouring local trade perpetuates local production and service offers within the city. By buying local, you are helping to perpetuate the local economic model, which is a win-win situation for everyone: your retailer brings in cash, so he can pay his competent staff who are ready to listen to you, and maintain the infrastructure needed to offer you a relevant and regularly renewed stock.

Ultimately, one of the key objectives of your local retailers, with the help of Letzshop, is to offer you a quality shopping experience at the best price. Online or in-store. When, as an added bonus, your local merchants offer a return on investment to the community by proposing partnerships, sponsorships and donations to sports clubs and associations, we can say that “we’ve come full circle”.

Buying locally and the environment

Your purchase from Letzshop’s local merchants has many other benefits, not least of which is the considerable reduction in pollutant emissions linked to imports and exports. The reduction in greenhouse gases and the CO2 tax has been making major progress in Luxembourg since 2020. Your stance and attitude today can make all the difference in the future. We all owe it to ourselves to take action against climate change and think about our children’s future.

Letzshop retailers must be established in Luxembourg and carry out their business in the country. So if you have any doubts about choosing an item or service, your email will be dealt with quickly. Your telephone call will be answered in Luxembourgish, French, German, Portuguese or English by a person who will be able to respond effectively to your request.

There is also another factor that is important to us at Letzshop: your security. Your local e-commerce platform is of course completely secure, whether it’s your private data or your payment information. At a time when many phishing attempts are being made, often from abroad, it’s reassuring to be able to shop online with peace of mind.
