How Our Vendor Program Works

Simple, Transparent, and Supportive

We believe in keeping things straightforward so you can focus on your craft. Our vendor program is designed to be accessible and supportive, with clear expectations and plenty of room for your business to grow.

Getting Started

Begin your journey with Gift Chateau by selecting your booth space and completing a simple vendor agreement. We'll work with you to understand your product line and ensure it fits well with our diverse marketplace. First month's rent is due upon signing, and we'll help you get set up for success from day one.

Monthly Booth Rental
Choose a booth size that matches your inventory and budget. Your monthly rent includes basic cleaning services and access to our established customer base.
Commission Structure
We retain a 10% commission on cash sales and 13% on credit card sales to cover transaction fees, point-of-sale systems, utilities, marketing, insurance, and operational costs.
Product Approval Process
To maintain a diverse and high-quality marketplace, we work with vendors to approve product lines. This ensures every shopper finds something unique and special when they visit.
Flexible Lease Terms
Start with a 6-month initial lease that gives you time to establish your presence. After that, continue on a month-to-month basis or renew for another term—your choice.

Your Responsibilities as a Vendor

We've built a thriving marketplace by working together as a community. Here's what we ask of our vendors to help maintain the welcoming, professional atmosphere that draws customers through our doors.

Keep Your Display Fresh
Maintain an attractive, well-stocked booth that looks inviting to customers. We provide basic vacuuming, but keeping your space organized and appealing is your creative canvas.
Price Your Items Clearly
Use the provided pricing stickers to ensure staff can assist customers and process sales smoothly. Clear pricing helps everyone and keeps the shopping experience positive.
Join Our Marketing Efforts
Help spread the word about Gift Chateau by liking, sharing, and engaging with our social media content. Join our Facebook vendor group to stay connected with fellow artisans and receive important updates.
Participate in Community Events
Show up for special events like Small Business Saturday, First Fridays, and Meet the Artisan events. Your presence helps create the vibrant, personal shopping experience our customers love.
Maintain Your Inventory
Keep your booth well-stocked and notify staff when bringing in new products. You're responsible for your inventory, so regular check-ins help ensure everything is running smoothly.

Non-Compete Consideration

To help all vendors succeed, we ask that you not participate in other permanent storefronts within the 81212 zip code while you're part of our community. This helps ensure Gift Chateau remains your primary local retail presence. You're always welcome to sell at pop-up shops, farmers markets, online, and other venues—we want to support your business growth in every way possible.
