- And plenty more
Don't see your business on the list? Apply anyway. We're always interested in bringing something new into the market.
A SPACE THAT FITS YOUR BUSINESS
Not every vendor needs the same amount of room, so Flagship offers multiple booth sizes to fit different products, displays and budgets.
5' × 5'
Perfect for smaller setups, new vendors, collectibles, tabletop displays and businesses that don't need a full-size booth.
5' × 10'
A little more room for inventory and displays while still keeping your setup compact.
10' × 10'
Our full-size vendor space, giving you plenty of room for tables, racks, shelving, signage and a complete branded setup.
Need more room? Depending on availability, vendors may be able to reserve multiple adjoining spaces or discuss a custom setup with us.
WHY SELL AT FLAGSHIP?
Running your own storefront comes with a lot of overhead. Flagship gives you the opportunity to create your own retail space without taking on the expense and long-term commitment of a traditional store.
Your booth gives you a physical place to meet customers, showcase your products and build your brand alongside other local businesses.
For an established business, that could mean reaching a completely new group of customers. For an online seller, it could mean finally putting your products in front of people face-to-face. And for someone just getting started, it could be the first step toward turning an idea or side hustle into a real business.
You don't need a huge company or a perfect setup to start. You just need something worth sharing with Erie.
HOW IT WORKS
1. APPLY
Tell us a little about yourself, your business and what you plan to sell. Applications help us maintain a good variety of vendors and make sure Flagship is the right fit for your business.
2. GET APPROVED
Once we've reviewed your application, we'll contact you with the next steps and answer any questions you may have.
3. CHOOSE YOUR SPACE
Approved vendors will be able to select the booth size and reservation option that works best for them.
4. RESERVE YOUR BOOTH
Complete your booth payment online to secure your reservation.
5. SET UP & SELL
Bring your inventory, build your display and get ready for market weekend. You handle your products and customer transactions while we work on building the market, promoting Flagship and getting customers through the doors.
MAKE THE SPACE YOUR OWN
Your booth is your storefront for the weekend, and we encourage vendors to make it feel like their business.
Bring your own tables, racks, shelving, signage and displays and create a space that customers want to stop and explore. A clean, organized and creative booth doesn't just help your business — it helps make the entire Flagship experience better.
Vendors are responsible for their own merchandise, displays, staffing and payment processing unless otherwise arranged with Flagship Market.
NEW TO SELLING? THAT'S OKAY.
You don't need years of experience or an established storefront to become part of Flagship.
Some vendors may already have thousands of customers. Others may have an Etsy shop, sell through social media, travel to markets or run their business from home. Some may be putting a price tag on their products and selling to the public for the first time.
We want Flagship to be a place where businesses at different stages can grow alongside one another.
If you have a product, an idea and the motivation to put yourself out there, we want to hear from you.
HELP US BUILD SOMETHING LOCAL.
Flagship Market isn't just about filling booth spaces.
We're building a marketplace that gives Erie another reason to shop local while giving the people behind our local businesses another place to be seen.
Every vendor brings something different into the building, and that's what will ultimately make Flagship worth visiting again and again.
If that sounds like something you'd like to be part of, we’d love to hear from you!
