Pop-Up Shops — temporary stores selling a variety of products — have become a popular retail concept, including at La Palmera.
If you have a product for sale, including fashion, art, jewelry, etc., and are looking for greater exposure to potential customers, then our Pop-Up opportunity might be perfect for you.
If you are interested in participating in a Pop-Up Shop event — held seasonally at La Palmera — please fill out the application provided through the link below.
What is a Pop-Up Shop?
The Pop-Up Shop provides a marketplace for an exclusive segment of specially skilled and artistic merchants. Pop-Up Shops are a quality showplace for today’s talented and inventive creators, designers, and artists who are interested in exhibiting and selling their quality merchandise to the public.
How are Pop-Up Shop Exhibitors chosen?
A complete application including product and booth photographs is required for consideration in any Pop-Up Shop Event. All merchandise that will be displayed and/or sold in your booth must be included/disclosed on your application. Criteria for acceptance include originality, quality, imagination, and design. Shows are monitored to ensure quality and variety. Management reserves the right to accept products or companies that add variety and interest as well as compliment other vendors. Exhibits must be of the highest quality possible.
How are Pop-Up Shop contracts accepted?
If Mall Management approves your application, our office will send you the license agreement for participation. Acceptance is based on availability and category, as well as many other factors including: overall quality and professionalism of product/display, tenure with the shows, quantity of shows done, or any cancelled over the years, account standing, and the date the contract is received.
How many exhibitors are in each Pop-Up Shop Event?
The event size varies according to space availability.
What is the cost for each Pop-Up Shop Event?
Daily Rates (valid only for day of Pop-Up Shop Event) are:
Rates subject to change based on availability and holidays.
When are fees due?
Fees are due with the signed License Agreement. Payments may be made by cashier’s check or money order. We do not accept business checks, personal checks, or credit cards.
What if you are placed on the waiting list?
If the Event is sold out, or if an Event is full in your category when your License Agreement is processed, you will be placed on the waiting list for that Event. If we have cancellations, we may contact you and at that time you will be under no obligation to accept the placement. Because we do not know when cancellations will occur, this might be close to the Event date – but again, this is the vendor’s choice whether or not to participate. We will hold your application for up to three months.
What are Pop-Up Shop hours?
Pop-Up Shop hours are: 10:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Holiday, department store, and restaurants hours may differ.
What are the set up hours?
Set up hours are before or after mall hours. The doors to the mall are unlocked at 6:00 a.m. You must be set up by 9:00 a.m.
How to add new items to the booth setup?
We understand that goods are always changing. Changes and additions within your approved line are encouraged. However, Mall Management must be notified before any new type of items can be sold. New products will not be allowed to be displayed or sold without prior approval from Mall Management. It will be necessary to send in pictures of the new items with a full description including what percentage of your display the new merchandise will occupy. Any unapproved items must be removed upon notification.
What are the booth requirements?
BACKDROPS: Mall Management will provide pipe and drape for your booth set up. You will want to make your space appear as a room setting or boutique within the show.
BOOTH SIGN: You will need to provide your own booth sign no larger than 2’ x 7’ for a 10×10 or 10×20 setup. The sign must be professional and cannot be adhered to Mall Property. No hand written signs or banners are allowed. It must be attractive and compliment your booth. For an RMU, the sign must be incorporated within the merchandising of the RMU.
TABLES: Tables must be covered to the floor. Tables and skirting are not provided.
APPEARANCE: Your booth must be neat and orderly at all times. All back stock, boxes, and personal items should be kept out of sight. Remember, it is a proven fact that a quality booth and quality products in a quality show results in more money in your pocket!
PROMPTNESS: Your booth is expected to be completely ready and you are expected to be in your booth at least 30 minutes before the Event opens, at which time Mall Management will conduct a walk through. There is no early tear down. In the event you sell out of merchandise, your booth must remain open until closing.
How is electricity handled at the Pop-Up Shop Event?
There is electricity available at the Pop-Up Shop Event. However, it is limited. The maximum electricity allowed per booth is 100 watts for each five feet of booth space. If a problem occurs, we may ask for everyone to cooperate and lower usage. We suggest that you use lower watt or energy saver bulbs. When fans are used, fewer lights can be used.
