FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Welcome to the Market at St. Andrews, we are grateful you are considering becoming one of our vendors. To streamline the application process please review the FAQ’s before submitting your application.

 

1) All vendors will be required to log into the online portal for vendor date changes, additions, deletions changes in products to be sold, profile changes, etc. The requests will be processed by the market manager in a timely fashion and will be communicated back via email with the result of the change.

 

2) The Market operates each Saturday year-round from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. and is located at Oaks by the Bay Park in St. Andrews (2715 West 10th St, Panama City, FL 32401). Vendors must be set-up and ready to go at 8:45 a.m. and remain until 1 p.m. It is each vendor’s responsibility to stay abreast of changing weather conditions (especially on market day) and make decisions based on your business model as to whether you choose to set up.

 

3) The Market will only be canceled if there is an imminent threat of severe weather, i.e., a named storm or tropical weather warnings. Vendors will be notified either electronically or verbally of closure and be given further instruction. If management cancels the Market, vendors will be credited on the next market day.

 

4) It has been shown that vendors who grow or make their goods are the vendors with the most success. With that, The Market is focused on agricultural-based goods, food products, and arts and crafts. Non-Profits conducting fundraisers and providing services will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Reselling of manufactured products is not allowed.

 

5) The Market Manager and the Historic St. Andrews Waterfront Partnership make the final decision on market vendors and allowable products.

 

6) For food products to be considered, the vendor must provide proof of any required state permits if applicable. The vendor should have a copy of any state-required permit on each market day.

 

7) Facebook Messenger requests for applications will not be considered.

 

8) Booth rental for a 10 x 10 space is $20 per Saturday and needs to be paid in advance. No credit will be issued unless the market is fully canceled due to imminent severe weather.

 

9) The Market is not a forum for political organizations to recruit, market and/or advertising. No solicitation of a political nature, which includes candidates, political parties, and political causes seeking to speak to voters or distribute political literature will be allowed at The Market. This does not include voter registration drives or other non-partisan efforts.
