Great experience!

We recently had the pleasure of joining Lokal's gluten-free market at Marda Loop CA. The event was packed with customers who were as enthusiastic about gluten-free options as we are at Goodbake. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with the community and showcase our products. A huge shoutout to Gerrit for organizing such a fantastic event—it was busy, lively, and so well put together. Thanks for giving small businesses like ours a chance to shine. We can't wait for the next one!

GF markets supports your local charities.

This is a very organized and great gluten free market! The Celiac community greatly benefits these markets. We are very fortunate to have the support from Gerrit and the generosity of a free vendor booth at the markets. Gerrit is also very open to feedback. A great market!

Amazing

We had an amazing experience at the Market Gluten Free event by Lokal! It was by far the best market we’ve been a part of so far. The turnout was incredible, and we were busy all day serving our gluten-free empanadas. The organization of the event was top-notch, with everything running smoothly and plenty of support for vendors. We are so grateful to have been part of such a well-organized and vibrant community event. Looking forward to participating again!

Great Market!

We were offered a table at the vegan market as a charity we don't do many markets. It was very organized, all communication was clear. The staff even helped us unload. We had a great day for sales and met so many people! Looking forward to the next one!

Exceeded Expectations!

This was our first time attending an event with the Lokal Market team, and like with many first-time events, we used it to gauge interest. What stuck out to me was their exceptional marketing, the great atmosphere and high turn out. Attendees matched the vibe of our product and I thoroughly enjoyed the diversity of the vendors. Great job folks!

Wonderful Experience!

We were a vendor at the first annual Summer Vegan Market and had such a great experience. The market was well organized and promoted, and the turn out was remarkable. I loved seeing the diversity in the vendors from food to beauty to crochet. Highly recommend attending both as a vendor and a shopper!
