Information for Market Organisers

Pedddle is a directory of markets and stallholders, let us talk you through how Pedddle can help you as an organiser.

How to reach new market visitors

Want to be seen by a new audience? Footfall is a huge deal for markets – and we can help drive yours.

Pedddle gives you exposure and drives online traffic, AND promotes visitors to your events in-person too.

As of January 2025, 79% of the UK population (that’s approximately 54.8 million people) are active social media users (stats from Sprout Social).

Simultaneously, our website has approximately 400,000 users per year, creating around 800,000 page views.

We also have a sister website: Tresstle, which is dedicated to running creative events online. This could give further exposure to your events, and encourage new visitors. Click here to find out more.

Want to find stallholders for your markets?

You’re in the right place! By listing an event with Pedddle, your market will be instantly more visible for stallholders to find you and enquire.

  • You can use our market directory for FREE to find stallholders local to you, and you can filter them by stall type.
  • You can reach out directly via the contact form on their page, or tell us and we’ll shout about your market applications being open*!
  • We are also introducing a brand new incentive scheme. Encourage your stallholders to join Pedddle and they’ll list on your organisers page, then you’ll get money back in return! Click here to sign up to our mailing list and be the first to know when this programme is released.

What is market check-in & how is it beneficial?

  • Market Check-in is a feature our stallholders use to virtually ‘check-in‘ to markets that they’re selling at in advance (once they’ve been accepted to trade with you).
  • Encouraging your stallholders to ‘check-in’ to your markets they’re selling at, will show up on your Pedddle market page(s), and your markets will then appear on their stall page in return. This cross-promotion is a fabulous benefit as it creates further reciprocal links and boosts yours and your stallholders’ online visibility.
  • Market customers are able to view a Pedddle market page, for up to 6 months after that market took place, to see who was trading at that market – helping to boost sales long after market day.

 

Why is Pedddle unique?

Pedddle is the premier artisan directory in the UK. Founder Nicki visits markets often, encouraging people to visit their own local markets and shop independent.

One of our USP is our market check-in but we have a plenty of other unique features too!

Pedddle has:

  • A strong focus on independent businesses. We specifically champion small, independent, creative artisan businesses. Pedddle is curated to support the handmade, creative, and local movement.
  • A targeted audience. We’re not just a generic business directory – people searching through Pedddle are looking specifically for artisan, creative events.
  • Great traffic, with around 400k website users per year, and 800k page views.
  • Geolocation features. Pedddle users can discover markets and stallholders nearby, thanks to our built-in geolocation tools allowing them to filter by County. This is a game-changer for local engagement!
  • Strong branding. Given that we work with the creative community, our entire Directory and community experience is design-led, with a focus on aesthetic, photo-rich aspects to reflect the businesses that we work with in the most positive, professional light.

We have many different features for Market Visitors and Stallholders, but when it comes to Event Organisers, getting your stallholders listed can benefit you.
