About Guelph Market

Guelph Market was created to provide a platform for small businesses and independent makers to connect with, and sell their handmade goods to the Guelph Community.

Our mandate is to give preference to business owners and individuals who identify as Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (BIPOC) or belonging to a marginalized group.

Due to Covid-19 and the increased risks of holding in person events, they have made the decision to pause our in person markets until further notice. During this period, they will be focusing on advocacy work and creating meaningful products for the community.
