VendorsMap for Brands

Put your brand where America shops local.

Every weekend, millions of people walk farmers markets, craft fairs and festivals. VendorsMap is where the makers who sell there plan their season and the organizers who run them manage it. Partner with us and your brand shows up right where those decisions are made, online and in person.

Our mission

Keep local selling alive, and help it grow.

Makers like Alyssa are the heart of every town's weekend. They make the work, load the car, set up a tent and hope the crowd shows. We build the tools that make that effort pay off: finding the right events, applying in minutes, getting paid safely, and being found by the people who love what they make.

When a brand partners with VendorsMap, it backs that work. Your name sits next to something people genuinely care about, not another banner they scroll past.

  • Every market, one map26,000+ markets, fairs and festivals across the US and Canada.
  • Selling without the scamsMembers are covered up to $500 a claim by our Scam Protection Promise.
  • More of every booth fee stays localOur platform fee on booth fees and tickets is 0% until May 8, 2027.

Where your brand shows up

In front of people at the exact moment they are choosing.

Makers open VendorsMap to decide where to sell next. Shoppers open it to decide where to spend their Saturday. We put your brand inside those moments, tastefully, and always placed by a person.

On the map

A presented-by spot on the map everyone plans with.

Your brand on the map and in the app, beside the markets in the regions you choose. Featured pins glow gold, and your name rides with them.

In event alerts

Inside the alerts makers actually open.

Vendors rely on our new-event alerts to plan their weekends. A partner spotlight sits inside them, next to the markets they came for.

Questions brands ask

The people who make local commerce happen: 80,800+ independent sellers planning where to sell next, 2,100+ organizers running markets and festivals, and the shoppers who follow them. Online it is the map, event pages and alerts they use every week. In person it is the events themselves.

No. Every partnership is planned and placed by our team, by hand, and you approve where your brand appears before it goes live. There are no auctions, no retargeting pixels on your behalf and no resold inventory.

Pick events from our sponsorship catalog. We send the full pitch packet, introduce you to the organizer and help close the deal. You sign directly with the organizer and we earn a commission only when a sponsorship closes. No retainers and no minimums.

For companies that buy booths to meet customers: wireless and internet retailers, insurance, solar, home services, banks and credit unions. Tell us your territory and every week you get the events worth being at, with crowd size, booth fees and deadlines, and we help you book them. It is $199 a month per territory, starting with a one-month paid pilot.
