Black Market Flea is a carefully curated event. We seeks out the most unique, Black-owned brands; those who go the extra mile to provide uncommon, signature products of quality, purpose and creativity. Due to our moderate capacity, we have a limit on how many vendors we approve within the same product category per month. This may be one reason a submission is not approved. Other reasons may include: the website or socials provided do not give a clear or accurate representation of products, products are inappropriate for certain age groups (as weare an all ages event), products/service may not be sanitary for the event, products go against our zero tolerance policy for discrimination, or the products do not align with the curation of Black Market Flea.
Yes, all vendors at BMF must be Black/African/African-American.
A standard vendor booth is 10’x10’. If a vendor wishes to purchase additional space, you can via the payment page on vendor submissions after your submission gets approved.
A standard 10x10 booth is $150. Each additional 10x10 space is an additional $150. Vendors must also purchase insurance for their booth/business for the event day. One of our insurance recommendations is via Thimble.com, and starts around $27 for merchandise vendors.
We currently do not require permits for merchandise vendors. This is subject to change. For food, pastry, and beverage vendors, health permits are required and all non-truck vendors without LA County Health Permits must fill out and pay for a TFF permit, which will be reviewed for approval by the LA County Department of Public Health.
If you are approved to vend, but have not yet paid for your booth, there is no need to reach out to withdraw from the event, as your spot is not secured until you pay for your booth. If you have paid for your booth, but need to withdraw from the event, we have a 24hr full refund policy. If you must withdraw from the event on the day of the event, please send an email stating your business name and withdrawal.
