No duplicate stalls
We’re keen to not have duplicate products or traders in each category, making it a better experience for both our traders and our shoppers.
We’ll be taking the best of the best and we’re also happy to offer casual placements on an ad hoc basis or pop you into the system if a long term place becomes available as we expand the size of the market.
Market Focus
The market is more than 80% food-based with an emphasis on Victorian produce.
Size
We have limited space so have capped our capacity at 40 stalls.
Timing
8:00AM to 1:00PM
Organised by the Rotary Club of Sandringham.
