Casual Stalls
The Ferntree Gully Road gate opens at 6:00 am and all stall tickets must be purchased at the ticket box.
After you have purchased your stall ticket, proceed down the roadway towards the market and join the queue on the left hand side of the road.
Stall allocation from this queue commences at approximately 8:00am. Our staff will need to be advised of how many stalls you require and what you are selling. We then direct you to your stall. Once you have promptly unloaded your stock onto the stall, your vehicle must be removed from the market pavilion by 8:30am as this is when the market is open to the general public.
Regular Stalls
Should you wish to apply for a regular stall position you will need to attend on a casual basis for a minimum of six consecutive weeks. Application forms are available from our market staff on the day. Your details will be then be placed on a waiting list. You must continue as a casual for your name to remain on the waiting list for a regular position.
Stall Presentation & Tips
We recommend bringing a tablecloth to cover your table, making it look more presentable. You should also bring a chair or stool as it can be a long day if you are standing up.
Clothes racks are a fantastic way of displaying clothing items and also great for creating extra space on your table.
If you place too many items on your table, it could look cluttered and customers may avoid your stall, so keep your items neat. You can keep boxes/bags under your table so that you can replace items on the table once you have sold them.
Do not overprice your items!! People come to the Market to pick up a bargain and feedback from past stallholders found that the more reasonable the price, the more they sold.
Make sure you bring along some plastic bags that you can use to put your items in when they are purchased by the customer.
Ensure that all items are visibly labelled with a price tag. This can be each item individually or in groups of items that are the same price.
Be approachable, smile and greet your customers. Something so simple can make a big difference in the amount of people who will approach your stall.
