Broad Street Market temporary structure
Three sweet and fresh new vendors will join the Broad Street Market in the coming weeks.
Market officials shared on Monday that cookie company Taylor Chip, produce and flower grower Diaspora, and local chocolatier Cherished Treasures will join seven other vendors in the market’s temporary tent structure.
“The Broad Street Market is thrilled to welcome these three new vendors to the market community, each of whom brings with them a diverse array of products with a loyal following,” said Eric Hagarty, chair of the market’s board. “We are excited for their existing customers to have greater access to their products and for others to have the opportunity to join their legions of fans.”
Intercourse, Pa.-based Taylor Chip offers its signature big and gooey cookies, as well as coffee and ice cream, at four existing locations in Lancaster County, York and inside the Hershey Fresh Market.
Cherished Treasures is a family-run business based in Williamstown, Pa., that makes homemade chocolate, candies and snacks.
According to the market, Diaspora is based in Myerstown, Pa., and has appeared as a pop-up vendor at the market in the past.
The three new vendors will fill the final open spaces in the temporary tent, bringing the number of vendors to 10. The structure is located across from the market and was built to house vendors displaced by a July fire in the market’s brick building. About two dozen vendors operated in the brick building at the time of the fire, but only seven chose to re-open in the temporary location.
Market officials have shared that the temporary tent is slated to open by the end of April or early May.
The market received many applications from businesses looking to secure a spot in the new structure, and the selection process was highly competitive, according to officials. Applicants who were not selected will have the opportunity to be considered for future permanent positions in the market and for opportunities to serve as pop-up vendors, the market shared.
