Procure At Hyde Park Village Offers Local Products Created By Women

TAMPA, FL — Procure by the Women’s Creative, a St. Louis-based brand and storefront, has expanded into the Tampa Bay market with its second U.S. in historic Hyde Park Village.

The new type of shopping experience at 734 S Village Circle, provides retail as a service for dozens of female-owned businesses.

After experiencing success in St. Louis with Procure in 2022, The Women’s Creative launched its retail concept in Tampa to create an opportunity for local women-owned, product-based businesses to showcase their products. The shop features a curated collection of gifts, accessories, home goods and skin care products primarily from local and Florida-based businesses.

“The Women’s Creative is thrilled to bring Procure to Tampa to celebrate and grow the incredible work that so many local women are doing,” said Cristina Weaver, co-creator of The Women’s Creative and a Tampa native. “Procure and Tampa both hold a special place in my heart, and I look forward to giving female creators in my hometown a place to sell and connect with our community. We can’t wait to welcome you into our space to shop, attend events and feel lifted by the amazing creativity of our partner brands.”

“Procure will be a fantastic addition to Hyde Park Village as it adds to our strong mix of both women- owned and locally owned businesses, all while highlighting dozens of talented female creators and their works. We cannot wait to introduce guests to this exciting new concept,” said Sarah Moore, senior marketing manager of Hyde Park Village.

Since 2017, The Women’s Creative has been providing marketing and sales services to support creative women-owned businesses. It currently serves a network of more than 1,500 women-owned startups through its membership service, retail shop, event activations and networking.

In Tampa, Procure will collaborate with more than three dozen women-owned businesses to bring awareness to their brands and products in the dedicated storefront. Notable partners include Melissa Koby, creator of MKobyArt, which has been featured in Target, West Elm, YSL’s Skincare line and more; and leSucre, Tampa Magazine’s 2021 and 2022 Best Candle Company winner.

Curated collections will include fine, handcrafted jewelry, art prints, wellness products, children's clothing and gifts, handmade candles, blankets and pillows, bags, accessories, gourmet packaged food items and more.
