About Us
Sherwood Square is a Chicago marketplace built to make shopping local easier, faster, and more connected. Our focus is to bring together the best independent shops in the city and give you, the consumer, a single place to discover their products, support their work, and keep more of your spent dollars in your own community.
We believe local businesses are the heart of Chicago’s neighborhoods. They shape our streets, our culture, and our sense of place. Sherwood Square exists to make sure those businesses thrive in a world where convenience usually means shopping big-box or big-tech.
For Shoppers
Sherwood Square gives you one spot to explore local shops across Chicago. You can browse multiple stores at once, check out in a single cart, and get local delivery most neighborhoods throughout the city. No mega-warehouses. No cross-country shipping. Just Chicago businesses delivering great products to the Chicago community.
For Business Partners
Sherwood Square was designed to support independent shops, not compete with them. Joining the platform during our launch phase is 100 percent free, with no onboarding costs or long-term commitments. Each business manages its own inventory and pricing, keeps full control over its brand, and benefits from included local delivery that expands reach without the extra work. Our goal is to help local businesses grow online, reach new customers, and drive more revenue throughout the year.
