Apply to the Seattle Made Airport Store
Below is an overview of the submission process for the Seattle Made Airport store. While Seattle Made staff does not handle purchasing feel free to reach out (gro.doogelttaes@aerdna) if you have any questions.
Product Categories
- Home Decor, Apparel, Children’s Goods, Accessories, Jewelry, Beauty
- Souvenirs and Regionally Inspired Gifts
- Pre-packaged Specialty Foods. Foods must be pre-packaged and have a minimum of six -month shelf life (with printed expiration dates)
- Nonalcoholic Beverages. There is a small refrigerator available for cold items.
- Alcoholic Beverages. Limited to beer and wine.
Things to Consider
- Smaller-sized items do well, i.e., objects that can easily fit in a carry-on bag.
- Visible Seattle branding (in packaging and tagging) appeals to travelers.
- Please keep in mind that due to the high costs associated with the airport, your wholesale price will be marked up higher than a typical retailer.
- If selected for inclusion, you must be capable of printing UPC and retail labels. Your buyer can create UPC numbers for you, so you do not need to purchase them, but you will need to create the labels. The barcodes can be produced here.
- Offering displays is always a plus.
Submission Overview
- You must be a Seattle Made member to be featured at the store.
- Buyers will respond to submissions within 3 – 4 weeks. Please be patient. If you do not hear from a buyer in 4 weeks you can reach out to confirm your submission. Please cc Andrea Porter, program manager (andrea @ seattlegood.org) on your messaging so we can help assist with confirming a response.
- If buyers do not purchase your line, you may resubmit as you create new product lines.
