OPEN AIR COMMUNITY MARKETS
Flea markets or more commonly known nowadays as “community” or “open-air” markets pop up wherever people live because people have always loved to meet and trade and barter with one another in these socially attractive, lively, enduring, vibrantly bustling places for hundreds of years.
Hallo South Coast Online Marketplace connects buyers with local sellers who are participating in fairs and markets on the South Coast. Buyers can shop from sellers in person or online, supporting our online Vendors, the South Coast community at large and our own local economy.
This site, although recognized as a simulation of an open-air market, encourages you to visit our local markets. We wholeheartedly support and love our local markets and recommend that you use both platforms when buying and selling goods for greater exposure and convenience. Both open-air and our virtual community market offer a distinctive experience and related benefits.
Should you become a Vendor on our site, we propose that you mention in your Vendor Profile at which open-air market you will be and when, so that shoppers can easily visit you when they are looking for an outdoor, face-to-face experience.
