The rule
Headquartered here, or not listed
Independent businesses headquartered in Ohio qualify. It’s an honest, checkable line: an independent business keeps its decisions and dollars in-state.
What’s excluded
Chains and franchises
National chains and franchises are excluded even when a local family owns the location. No exceptions, no paid placements around the rule.
Got it wrong?
Owners set the record
Exclusion runs on blocklists and heuristics, so mistakes happen. Claiming your listing is the correction mechanism — read the standard.
Is your business listed? Claim it free.
Verify your details, add photos and hours, and get the Claimed-by-owner badge. Upgrades are optional — claiming never costs anything.
