Food / Retail / Business Vendors Opportunities
Are you looking for an exciting place to market and sample your store/company’s products and services? No other Festival allows you to reach an audience of 8,000 guests (with a focus in the Asian community) quite like the Heritage Festival.
Whether you market products, food samples, or related products, the Asian/Pacific American Heritage Festival serves as the ideal venue for your store/company/restaurant.
Things to Keep in Mind for Food Vendors
- Simple, portable foods will be a hit! For example: Rice balls, sushi, ready-to-eat fruits
- Keep prices low. More than $10 per item is probably too much
- When deciding what to sell, keep in mind the cost of making the food (e.g., ingredients, utensils). You don’t want to lose money on each sale!
- Make sure to bring small bills as change – also keep this in mind when deciding on price
- You may use sterno heaters to keep food warm, but open flame grills are not allowed
- You do not need to apply for a food permit, but please email booths@capaonline.org if you decide to sell food
Sell Products/Crafts -
Selling unique products/crafts is a great way to generate some income!
- Unique items with cultural significance will do better than generic ones
- Look for low price items that work well as impulse buys
- Having a variety of products will keep people’s attention and will more likely lead to a sale
- Make sure to bring small bills as change
