Benefits of Ordering in Advance

Have you tried pre-ordering from market vendors? 

How does pre-ordering benefit you?

Contacting a vendor in advance to let them know what you would like to buy from them will allow the vendor to confirm that they will indeed have the product and they will set it aside for you with your name on it. This enhances your experience at the Market: you have reserved what you really came for and still have time to do a little browsing to discover some other amazing local products!

How does pre-ordering benefit the vendor?

Choosing and transporting products for market each week takes a bit of strategy. Display space is limited, transport space is limited. Sometimes a vendor has to make the decision of what will make it to market and what will have to be left behind. By ordering in advance, the vendor can adjust the product brought to market accordingly. The vendor has a satisfied, happy client and you, the customer, are not disappointed! Ask your favourite vendor how to best place an order with them. Some have virtual shops, for others, it can be as simple as a phone call!

Why this is good for Vankleek Hill Farmers’ Market?

The market’s ‘raison d’être’ is to bring local vendors (farmers/producers) and customers together, and further, to support vendors' success and customer satisfaction. As a result, the local economy benefits, the local supply chain is strengthened, and our community thrives.
