Detroit’s holiday season is a major driver for local businesses, bringing increased foot traffic and creating opportunities for entrepreneurs, artists and small businesses to connect with people throughout the city. At Bedrock, we focus on creating opportunities that help Detroit’s small businesses reach new customers and grow their presence downtown.
The Downtown Detroit Markets are funded by the @gilbertfamilyfoundation and managed by the @downtowndet , with support from Bedrock and @techtowndetroit . Together, these partners are aligned in strengthening Detroit’s small business ecosystem and expanding access to seasonal retail opportunities that reflect the city’s creative and entrepreneurial energy.
Vendor applications are now live, and we look forward to welcoming a new cohort of artisans, entrepreneurs and small businesses ready to engage with thousands of holiday visitors.
