The Northland Flavor
Marketplace allows regional artists to display their products to
potential retail buyers such as gift shops, bookstores, floral
shops, jewelers, and similar outlets. This is a wholesale
opportunity, not a retail event.
Potential artist participants include but are not limited to
crafters, visual artists, sculptors, potters, jewelry makers,
photographers, musicians, specialty food producers, and writers.
To be eligible to display at
the Northland Flavor Marketplace, an artist must:
-
Reside or work in the
11-county region served by the Northeast Entrepreneur Fund.*
-
Provide one or more
reproducible product lines (i.e, a product that can be
produced and sold in quantity).
-
Be able to take wholesale
(not retail) orders for product lines during the event.
-
Have the capacity to
fulfill wholesale orders from event attendees within a
reasonable time.
-
Demonstrate experience in
selling to a wholesale market, or attend one or more
preparatory sessions sponsored by Northeast Entrepreneur
Fund.
Retail buyers are invited to
attend at no charge, are required to register ahead of time and
provide proof of wholesale eligibility. This marketplace is open
to retail buyers only.
