2943, FLEA MARKET Business
Posted by ydklove2002, Tue Sep-02-08 06:09 AM




I have been looking for information on how flea market owners got started in the business, what are the things are needed to start such a business, what would you change if you had to do it all over again. What are the good and bad of the business or the do's and dont's.



I haven't found any information on the internet on flea market start ups and have been contacting people in the business for any information that they can provide.



I would appreciate any information that you can provide and promise to send you a link to the site once completed!

I wish I could help you with flea market specific advice, but the generalities are the same... location, location, location and talk, talk, talk...

You need a good address for it, and you need to have everyone and their dog know about it.

Aside from that, you'll want vendors who are a draw in and of themselves.

Two of the most popular flea markets I know of, one where my products sell very well, has an antiques market as its core, the other where my products don't sell at all; even to my target customers, has multiple garage sales as its core.

Both have been in existence for a very long time and have huge crowds every weekend.

The one thing that both have in common is that in the winter, they have permanent indoor installations that continue to be accessible to the public.

My uncle had 2 businesses at the local flea market for 40 years. I was christmas trees, the other was uniforms - work boots and clothes etc.
