A one-stop-closed-loop shop for the conscious consumer

The Local Loop exists to create, nurture, and elevate a community of local small businesses who prioritize sustainability and “closing the loop”  in all product offerings. Our goal is to make it easy for people to make simple adjustments in their day-to-day buying behaviours to move towards a more circular economy.

PAST EVENT: SUNDAY MAY 29th, 2022

The Event:

Come and shop unique and ethically-sourced sustainable goods in a great space, enjoy a steady stream of live music by local artists while sipping on some locally brewed beer, and earn a chance to win a gorgeous gift basket of curated local goodies. Kiddos and doggies are welcome!

The Venue:

Brunswick Bierworks welcomes guests to a friendly and accommodating atmosphere. The taproom is 3500 sq. ft. of open-concept space featuring exposed wood beams and large windows that allows for views of the brewery.  The venue is wheelchair accessible with accessible parking on-site.

  • Shannice Thomas

    Silky smooth R&B vocals cascade against hip-hop, soul, gospel, and trip-hop infused beats. Shannice Thomas hailing from Pickering, Ontario is a standout talent amongst Toronto’s up and coming R&B/Soul performers. Taking time after her recent graduation from The Remix Project, Shannice has been hard at work developing & producing what will become her next set of releases.
