About Us
"Support small business" is a valid concept, but there are limitations on market for many small, niche businesses. With the pandemic we all got used to ordering from the comfort of home and small business suffered the most.
By joining forces and sharing resources (this store) multiple small business owners can extend their offerings to more than the neighborhood where they reside or have a storefront. It also allows year round sales and not limited to good weather fairs.
Now Accepting Vendors!
Do you have a small business you’re looking to expand? Have you been wanting to sell online but aren’t sure how or maybe you don’t have a website?
Join the AB-C-DE Fam-i-ly!
ABCDE Mercantile is an Artisan Marketplace with a storefront and online store. We are currently looking to add Artisans and Vendors that have Handmade, Upcycled, Vintage, Antique, and even ReDoption Options (Upscale Resale).
Our Story
Retail Meets Ministry
Our business Vision and Mission is a bit different than your average retail store. Our main goal for ABCDE Mercantile is to help local artisans and entrepreneurs grow their individual small business while serving and having a positive impact in the community through our ministry outreach programs.
The power of big business for small business. If you are an artisan / maker and interested in extending your reach, please feel free to contact us for more details.
WHAT DOES ARTISAN MEAN?
An artisan is someone who makes an item by hand and is usually an expert in her or his specific trade. Artisan products encompass all types of goods.
WHAT KINDS OF PRODUCTS ARE ARTISAN MADE?
Many products are artisan made! Wooden and ceramic goods, textiles, metal and glass pieces for jewelry and décor. Artisan products have been handcrafted with care. Artisans also make delicious and authentic baked goods, coffee, cooking oils, and much more in the culinary world.
You may find that products made by artisans tend to be more expensive, but this isn’t without good reason. Artisan made goods are often unique and handmade with a personal touch or cultural significance, and are of a high quality with great attention to detail and materials.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BUYING ARTISAN PRODUCTS?
Buying artisan made goods has so many positive effects on communities both near and far. Besides supporting an ethical supply chain and ensuring high quality items, we can also support traditions of skilled work, not mass produced products. When we buy items that are artisan made, we are keeping their skills and traditions going while also keeping the art and personality in our everyday essentials. We are making sure that we can keep buying handmade goods at reasonable prices.
Supporting artisans also allows us to support small or local businesses and show that we care about who makes our products and how they are made. Artisan made items tend to put people first, and this idea extends not only to the maker but also to their families and their own community. We can prioritize their creativity and talent in the market, and ensure that they can continue their craft as a respected artisan.
To our potential vendors:
Artisan's on this site have historically marketed at craft fairs and other limited attendance venues. Most are not tech savvy or don't want their own online store to maintain. We handle the technical aspects for them. If this describes you, feel free to contact us to discuss joining in this collaborative effort.
