Held on the third Saturday of every month in the heart of Whitehaven Town Centre, Your Local Makers Market is a vibrant event that brings together a diverse community of local entrepreneurs and artisans.
From 10am to 3pm on King Street, visitors can explore a wide array of unique products, including handmade crafts, delectable baked goods, and fashionable items.
This market not only offers a unique shopping experience but also plays a crucial role in supporting small businesses and fostering a sense of community.
Organised by TEGretail, a not-for-profit Community Interest Company based in Cumbria, the market serves as a platform for emerging businesses to test their products and gain valuable exposure. TEGretail provides free market stalls to fledgling businesses, offering them an ecosystem to test their product-based ventures. They also offer mentorship and assess business models to lay the groundwork for sustainability and long-term growth.
The success of Your Local Makers Market has been significant, with TEGretail working with 190 businesses, 20 of which are now successfully operating or transitioning into their own physical or online spaces. This initiative has not only transformed livelihoods but also enriched the community and realised dreams.
By visiting Your Local Makers Market, you're not just purchasing unique items; you're also contributing to the growth of local businesses and the vibrancy of the Whitehaven community. Whether you're searching for one-of-a-kind gifts or simply wish to enjoy the lively atmosphere, Your Local Makers Market offers something for everyone.
