VENDOR SPACE AT THE GIFT MARKET
At our Gift Market, you will have a place to sell your handmade goods without an operating overhead or having to run a storefront. There is no time commitment required of you, other than to maintain your own booth space. Join us and expand your business by showcasing your work to the community.
We strive to maintain an inventory of handmade and unique accessories that are handmade, fair trade & inspirational including jewelry, giftable and small décor items. Our theme is "Make Something New" focusing on and celebrating all things created. NOTICE: Vendors can sell their items that are handmade only. Vendors are not allowed to sell antiques, vintage or resale (new) products. No furniture, large wall art or large decor items. No yard sale items. We try not to have too many vendors carrying the same products. All items must be pre-approved. If your products don't fit this criteria, then check out Grand Oaks Antiques and Gifts, they also have vendor space.
There are many size options for vendor space in the Gift Market. You create your own look and theme for your business. If you display in one of our outer wall booths, there is pegboard at the back and sides of your space. You will need to provide your own display pieces such as table or shelves. You may also select to display on one of our shelving units and utilize as much space as needed.
Vendors are NOT required to work at the Gift Market, but are required to clean and maintain your booth(s) and update your booth(s) on a regular basis or as your inventory sells down.
There are no term contracts but there is a one-time $25 administration set-up fee. Effective 1/1/2023 we will be offering Vendor space at Sale based commission only with no space rental fees as we continue to get established as a new business here in Columbus. Commission is 15% of your Gross Sales with an additional 3% charge for credit card sales.

TO ANSWER A FEW OF YOUR QUESTIONS
- TAGGING: All your products must have price tags on them that cleary state the PRICE and your SPACE/BOOTH #.
- What type of displays should I bring? Booth spaces already have pegboard at the back and on the sides. The pegboard at the back is hug starting at 36" up so you can bring your own table or shelf it and you can also put any type of display furniture in front of the pegboard.
For display Options A, B, and C we provide the shelf or table. - DISPLAY BONUS: We have a 10" deep window sill across the front of the store where each vendor will be allowed to display one of their smaller products.
- You never have to "work" at the store, but you do have to keep your own space stocked and clean.
- We collect and pay all the taxes and credit card fees, you pay nothing.
