Long-term success & growth, not day-of sales:

“We have done very well at your markets, but the slower markets are the ones where we have made the most impactful connections.”

“GOOD QUALITY HUMAN” SHARES HOW OUR SMALLER, QUALITY COMMUNITY OF ATTENDEES MAKES A B-I-G DIFFERENCE TO BUSINESSES:

  • Our first holiday market with you was crazy busy and you connected us to Vista Print, which became a great partnership that led us to being a part of the Season Finale of the show “GROWNISH” in May 2024.

  • The Summer markets were slower but we were discovered by the LA Times and were featured in the ‘Best Christmas Gifts for 2023’ guide, and we connected with the a shop buyer in LAX and we will soon be at the airport!

    The work that Unique has put in for many years is respected by people who are looking for curated products.
