Guest Vendors are businesses that temporarily set up daily on Saturday and Sundays from 11-3, either inside on the Mezzanine or, weather depending, outside on St. Catherine.

Permanent Vendors are food, beverage and retail businesses that occupy booths in one of three areas: the Fresh Air Hall, Mezzanine or Main Hall. These booths are open six days a week, typically from 11am-8pm.

Logan Street Market is a entrepreneurial incubator, where most of our permanent vendors are start-up businesses. The market has been created to be a low risk environment for innovative people to test their business model prior to moving on to a larger financial commitment.

Many of our successful businesses have been pop-up vendors who wanted to take their ideas to the next step as a full time business. They are owner operated, using their space to grow brand recognition while creating their inventory and gaining insightful feedback about product success from Logan Street Market patrons while fine tuning their financially sustainable business operations.

Lease agreements require all booths to be open during the market operating hours of 11am-8pm Tuesday through Saturday and 11am-6pm on Sundays. The market is closed Mondays. For various reasons, we do not recommend hiring an attendant for booth coverage for more than a few days a week for a newly operating business.

With booth rental agreements for as little as six months and fixed overhead including utilities, common area cleaning, wifi, market event promotions, free quarterly GE Kitchen usage for ticketed events and social media coverage, Logan Street Market is one of the safest introductory spaces for start up businesses in Louisville.

Depending on the area of the market and electrical requirements, monthly occupation can start at $500 for a retail booth and $2800 for a hooded food booth.

All fees are fixed and include electric, trash, wifi, water, common area cleaning, restrooms, market event promotions, free quarterly use of the GE Kitchen for ticketed workshops, common area seating for guests and social media sharing.

Yes, many of our vendors have optional additional 10 x 10 storage outside of their booth for extra inventory in an area within the building.

Become a Guest vendor for our weekend Makers and Growers Market. This will give you an opportunity to determine if the market is a good fit for your business.

If a booth is open, your application process will then include a tour with market management and an interview with the market Vendor Council, which will give you an opportunity to ask questions about contents of the lease agreement or any other questions you may have.

However, the first step is to fill out the inquiry form (below) to introduce yourself and ask any questions about your particular circumstances and offerings. We look forward to hearing from you and learning about your business!
