The Trading Post Market Vendor Fee

$20 — 10' × 10' Vendor Space

This payment is for vendors who have already been approved to participate in The Trading Post Market.

Each vendor space is 10' × 10' and the vendor fee is $20 per space.

Please use the same business/vendor name at checkout that you used on your application so we can match your payment to your approved space.

A Very Important Note About Space

IF YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED FOR A 10' × 20' SPACE, YOU MUST ADD TWO (2) VENDOR SPACES TO YOUR CART AND PAY FOR BOTH.

IF YOU PURCHASE ONLY ONE SPACE, YOU WILL RECEIVE ONLY ONE 10' × 10' SPACE ON MARKET DAY — EVEN IF YOUR APPLICATION WAS APPROVED FOR 10' × 20'.

Purchasing a vendor space does not replace the application or approval process. Please do not purchase a space unless you've been notified that your application has been accepted.

Your vendor space is not fully confirmed until we have received your payment and all required vendor documentation.

So, Where Does the $20 Go?

We're not trying to make our fortune twenty bucks at a time off vendor spaces.

Your vendor fee helps us cover the cost of actually putting this thing on.

Insurance — Y'all are expensive.

Marketing — Because having a market isn't much fun if nobody knows to come to it.

Signs & Event Stuff — Directional signs, cones, barricades, printing, trash, setup supplies, and all those little things nobody thinks about until you suddenly need them.

Making the Next One Better — If The Trading Post grows, we'd like the money it generates to go right back into making the next one a little bigger and a little better.

Eventually, we'd love to add live music into the mix too. Good vendors, good food, some music playing, and a whole lot of folks hanging around sounds pretty good to us.

But... baby steps.

First we need to prove we can put on a market without creating a traffic jam, losing a tent, or going broke buying insurance.

Then we'll worry about hiring the band.

We're trying to keep the vendor fee low, put together a market people actually want to attend, and see where this thing goes.

Maybe someday we're shutting down streets.

For now, we're buying signs.

Thanks for helping us get this thing off the ground.
