Four Vendors Chosen For Campbell River Micro-Market Project

The City of Campbell River has selected the first four local vendors to make the colourful units at 1235 Shoppers Row their new retail space.

This initiative is part of the Micro Market Business Incubator Program, offering a supportive environment for entrepreneurs and artisans to elevate their businesses and gain a foothold in Campbell River's retail landscape.

Applications were reviewed by a selection committee with representatives from the Downtown Business Improvement Association, the Campbell River Farmer's Market, Mayor Kermit Dahl, and City staff.

The City says the chosen vendors reflect the vibrant spirit and creativity of the local community.

Shoppers can get their first peak during CR Live Streets the new vendors Wednesday night, when they first open their doors ahead of summer hours, which will begin in August. (Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.).

The new vendors are: 

• The Mossy Coast
• Maggie’s Treats
• The Tin Can Pottery Shop
• Sinfully Delicious

Work on the site and within the vendors’ units will continue through August, in preparation for the official opening of the year-round market in the fall.

Mayor Dahl says the initiative not only supports local entrepreneurs but also enhances the vibrancy of the downtown, making Campbell River a more attractive destination for residents and visitors alike.
