Welcome to 2021. With the flip of the calendar, we’re into a new year. While the challenges were many in 2020, we learned much about the resiliency of our sellers and shoppers.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought temporary closures, new guidelines and restrictions, and reduced capacities to flea markets across the country. But the sellers and shoppers have always been the underlining strength of the flea market industry and they did not disappoint in 2020.
Sellers are independent business owners and entrepreneurs and in the face of COVID have once again learned how to adapt. While the flea market industry has historically been stable, it weathered this past year due to the tenacity and ingenuity of the people who run their businesses there.
