These things used to be called yellow-pages and there were some attempts to take them online before many people seem to have decided that Facebook is good enough or so. Although there are also various eBay like sites that offer "store pages" these days.
I guess a kind of federated yellow pages for local listings combined with a simple market place would make some sense.
@poVoq @geoma This looks interesting. Would you imagine the marketplace as paired to the local listings?
Given that one big problem of the fediverse for business applications so far is discoverability, I imagine to have a federated service that indexes all posts from accounts on that instance, and also has a marketplace. It basically is a federated Etsy? 😳
