Very nice and appreciate the effort you put into making this.

Some Improvements that could help: the location search could be an actual map with pins which would be easier to use some kind of tags for the different appareal items would help clarify which one, currently i have to click and search each vendor for things im looking for. Specifically autistic friendly / sensory clothing items.

Maybe a little leaflet.js w/ open street maps would fit the spirit of the site

Seconding location based lookups. I might not be looking for something specific, but if I know of businesses nearby worth patronizing, when I need that good/service, I'll visit them then.

good idea. i can do this :)
