Garner Marketplace Indoor Flea Market

Garner Marketplace, Garner’s only indoor Flea Market, has opened up in the Garner Plaza shopping center at the intersection of Highway 70 and 50 in the center with Family Dollar and the former Peak Fitness.

The variety of tenants at the indoor flea market brings a tremendous amount of character to the space, offering local customers a wide range of items for sale from unique gifts and artwork to appliances to clothing...

Garner Marketplace owner Clark Womack is a commercial real estate broker, whose company rents out spaces in the Garner Plaza. He had heard from many people that they didn’t have the money to pay for overhead in order to have their own store. He believes there are a lot of small business owners that don’t want to or can’t afford to sign a long-term lease with a strip mall or shopping center, but would like the opportunity to be in one,” Womack said. “That’s what I’m doing, providing those with the ability to sell their products without the burden of a conventional business set up.” Womack said the space was a thrift store already and with 11,000 square feet it was too big for one shop. Womack decided to use the space as an indoor flea market, marking off spaces on the floor.

Garner Marketplace affords businesses the amenities of restrooms, store front location and a mixture of other crafts and wares for sale that could attract new shoppers. Come join the many vendors who’ve already signed up as a store, second location, and advertising booth or just to sell out all the extra stuff in your attic.

The flea market is open each week from Wednesday through Sunday 10 - 6 so it is much more than just the weekends. Call for more information at 772-6758.

The Garner Marketplace will help the local economy because everyone is pinching pennies.
