As  Tourism Prince Rupert gets ready for the 2023 Tourism season, they have provided for a reminder on their upcoming Waterfront Container Market plans which will see the promenade between the Atlin and Northland Terminal become a marketplace this summer.

Set to open on May 3rd, Tourism Prince Rupert still has a few spaces available for those looking to showcase their goods to the large volume of tourists and residents that come to the waterfront each summer. 

Rental space is on a first come first serve basis so applying early will work to your advantage in your own planning for the season ahead.

Tourism Prince Rupert has outlined the details to their initiative below:

The Container Market has two 8’ x 20′ units available for local vendors. Each unit has a fully finished interior with ventilation, lighting, electrical outlets, and a fully customizable modular retail display system, including a point of sale counter and display shelves. 

All units have one large window across the entire front of the unit, an access door on one side, and large shipping container doors on the other side. 

The Container Market also offers an Open Market Container, which has space for up to three vendors on foldable tables. This is a lower cost option for those businesses looking for a short-term rental.


Some further background towards the containers can be reviewed below:
