The Retro Loop

Here in St. Paul, a collection of 5 indy businesses that sell vintage "retro" furniture, clothing, and household goods have banded together to market their wares. I think this is genius. They aren't bound by a single neighborhood, but they've recognized that there is power in being part of group that shares a similar customer base. In an era of national chain domination, it is great to see new models of independent business promotion. Check out St. Paul's Retro Loop.
