Introducing the Heart on Main Street Seal Program

Independent retailers are the backbone of communities across the country. They create local jobs, support neighborhoods, and bring personality and connection to Main Streets everywhere. Yet when challenges arise, whether it's a natural disaster, economic uncertainty, or the need for additional education and resources, independent retailers often don't have the same support systems as larger organizations.

That's why Heart on Main Street exists.

For years, Heart on Main Street has worked to provide grants, education, mentorship, and disaster recovery assistance to independent retailers. None of that would be possible without the generous support of our industry partners.

Today, we're proud to launch the Heart on Main Street Seal Program, a new initiative designed to recognize the vendors, sales agencies, showrooms, and service providers who are helping strengthen the future of independent retail.

What Is the Heart on Main Street Seal?

The Heart on Main Street Seal is a visible symbol of a company's commitment to giving back.

Displayed on websites, catalogs, marketing materials, social media, and in showrooms, the seal helps retailers identify companies that actively support programs benefiting independent retailers.

When you see the seal, you know you're supporting a company that believes in stronger retailers, thriving communities, and a stronger future for Main Street.

More Than a Badge

The Seal Program is about more than recognition.

It's about creating a movement within our industry that celebrates companies investing in independent retail. Every participating company helps make it possible for Heart on Main Street to continue funding initiatives that provide real support to retailers when they need it most.

Through ongoing campaigns, market activations, retailer outreach, and digital promotion, we'll continue encouraging retailers to look for and shop with companies displaying the Heart on Main Street Seal.
