While niche food and craft drinks are really popular right now, there is no single marketplace where consumers can get everything they need -- enter 'Tastemakr', the website providing 24-hour pop-up markets.
Tastemakr features a different food maker each day, giving consumers a place to be introduced to various niche products and accessibly purchase them through the Internet. This also gives independent makers a place to feature their food, gather an audience and do business. Anthony O. Thomas is the creator and was inspired by attending a food and culture festival, where entrepreneurs got to place a rare spotlight on their goods.
These 24-hour pop-up markets will not stop after their single day of glory. Tastemakr is using this project for curating a more consistent online marketplace. With greater interest in small batch produce, like craft beer, but less time to visit various independent shops, Tastemakr is the perfect solution.
