About Local Business Connect

Founded by Denzell Abbott – Built for the Community

Local Business Connect was created with one mission in mind: to help small, local businesses get seen, supported, and celebrated. Founded by Savannah native Denzell Abbott, Local Business Connect is more than just a directory—it’s a movement.

It all started with his family’s restaurant, Kreole Kitchen. While helping his parents promote their business, Denzell saw firsthand how challenging it was for small, hardworking entrepreneurs to get noticed. From designing flyers to getting the word out, he jumped in to support them—and realized something powerful: **every business needs the same two things—**to save money and gain more customers.

That simple truth became the foundation of Local Business Connect.

After noticing how many talented business owners struggled to gain visibility in their own neighborhoods, Denzell set out to change that. With a passion for creativity, design, and uplifting others, he built a platform that bridges the gap between small businesses and the customers looking for them.

Whether it’s a mom-and-pop restaurant, a startup service provider, or a creative entrepreneur—Local Business Connect gives local businesses the tools and exposure they need to thrive. From custom flyers and menus to logo design, business cards, and in-person promo drops, everything we do is about getting your business in front of the people who matter most—your local community.

Why It Matters

Denzell believes that when local businesses win, the whole community grows stronger. That’s why Local Business Connect doesn’t just promote businesses—we show up for them. Through online visibility and boots-on-the-ground promotion, our goal is to make sure no local gem goes unnoticed.
