Market Collective is a community collective retail store profiling local and Canadian makers, artisans, artistan designers and food producers.
Born out of response to the Pandemic closing all of the holiday Markets of 2020, Vanessa Gaudet of Lady Dragon Glassworks alongside Cory Judge of Shi Studio and Katrina Dwulit who founded Esquimalt Farmers Market and Co-Owns Ocean Tides Health Collective came together with 65 of our friends to put together a pop up to try and help out those in the local + handmade community that had lost their access to traditional sales avenues.
The Pop Up was very well received, and we now proudly have two locations- at The Bay Centre downtown and in Cordova Bay at Mattick's Farm.
Market Collective pride's ourself with being a mini Market experience, and not just a retail store. We know the makers and have personal stories to help you know them better as well. We have curated our stores to include those with very successful businesses mixed with some very grass-roots artists. Thank you for choosing local for all of your gifting needs.
