A fresh opportunity

Being New to IndieMe Is an Advantage

Our buyers value the artists they already know, but they are always searching for new work that will keep their stores distinctive and give their customers something fresh to discover.

IndieMe helps introduce your line to independent galleries, boutiques, museum stores, gift shops, and specialty retailers that believe original handcrafted products belong in their stores. You are not simply adding products to another crowded selling platform. You are bringing something new to a community of buyers who come to IndieMe specifically to discover American and Canadian handcrafted work.

More Than a Marketplace. Your Wholesale Home.

Building a separate wholesale website takes time and money. You need secure buyer access, wholesale pricing, ordering tools, product management, hosting—and then you still need to bring qualified retailers to it. Your IndieMe membership gives you a professional wholesale storefront within an established, juried marketplace where retail buyers are already searching for handcrafted products.
