Reps Are Local Too partnered with The Boutique Hub to launch a new digital Holiday Gift Guide created exclusively for independent retailers. The guide, which features holiday-ready products from 15 participating rep agencies, was shared with thousands of Boutique Hub member retailers across the country and is now available under the Resources tab at RepsAreLocalToo.com and on The Boutique Hub’s blog.

This marks the first collaboration between Reps Are Local Too and The Boutique Hub and the first digital guide of its kind from Reps Are Local Too. The publication highlights brands and products ideal for the holiday season, from home décor and entertaining essentials to cozy gifts, accessories, and trend-driven finds. Each item was selected by independent sales agencies who work directly with small retailers nationwide.

“This collaboration has been such a fun way to bring together the creativity of our rep agencies and the reach of The Boutique Hub,” said Angela Schmook, co-founder of Reps Are Local Too.

“We loved curating products that feel festive and personal, while helping retailers discover lines that fit their customers perfectly,” added Kelly Bristol, co-founder of Reps Are Local Too.

Representatives from The Boutique Hub shared their enthusiasm for the collaboration: “At The Boutique Hub, we’re always looking for new ways to connect our members with valuable industry partners,” said Samantha Conner, Director of Wholesale, The Boutique Hub. “Working with Reps Are Local Too on this project was a natural fit, and the guide is a fantastic resource for independent retailers as they plan their holiday assortments.”

Building on the success of this first edition, Reps Are Local Too and The Boutique Hub plan to collaborate again in 2026 to create a Spring Gift Guide, continuing their shared mission to support local reps, independent retailers and the brands they represent.
