VENDOR PORTAL

For Portland Vendors
First Things First
Show Date: Saturday, November 11th
Show Hours: 10am-5pm
Be sure to share the Facebook Event widely with your business and personal networks on all your social media channels! We’ll be boosting the Facebook event as the show gets closer, but the more people we have ‘interested’ and ‘going’ before that happens, the bigger the crowds! Also, be sure to follow us on Instagram, comment on our posts, and tag us throughout the season as the show approaches!
MISSED ANY VENDOR EMAILS?
Here are all the ones we’ve sent out so far this season:
Booth details
Please remember that this is a raw 5′ x 8′ space (or 10′ x 10′ if you have been approved for this). We will be able to provide tables and chairs for you to rent — more info coming about this soon!
As with all our shows, the longest side of your booth will be the side open to the public.
FOOD PERMITTING QUESTIONS
Depending on the nature of your product, you may need a temporary food service permit. To reach the Multnomah County Health Department and ask them any questions you may have about this, call (503) 988-3400 and press 0.
social media
Here are some images that you can use on your own social media to help promote the show. Don’t forget to link to gobbleupnorthwest.com!


Swag
If you need a refresher about what swag is, please refer to the Vendor FAQ so that you’re up to speed. We’ll be collecting your $40 worth of swag from you on Saturday morning when you check in, so please have that separated from the rest of your product so you can hand it off to us easily when you arrive.
If you indicated on your application that you do not want to contribute swag, we’ll add the $50 swag fee on to your booth invoice.
SMOKING POLICY
The Alder Block has a very strict no smoking/vaping policy. Any attendees or vendors found smoking or vaping inside or within 25 feet of the Alder Block property may receive a fine of up to $1,000.

FOOD PERMITTING QUESTIONS
Depending on the nature of your product, you may need a temporary food service permit. Find out more about this here. However, your business may qualify for an exemption, depending on your product. Call our area representative at 206.263.9566 (that is the main Seattle switchboard; ask for Rose Byrne, who is our inspector) and see if your business may qualify for an exemption.
You have already indicated on your application whether you would like to be included in our blanket permit, which should save everybody some money in permit fees, assuming we have enough vendors on board. We’ll be in touch within a few weeks after notifications go out with more details about this.

Load In
All vendors will be loading in via Load Zones 2 & 3. Only food trucks will be loading in to Zone 1.
WHEN YOU ARRIVE
There will be 2 check-in booths: one in the North Lot, and one in the South Lot. Those loading in from Zone 1 will check in at the South Lot; those loading in from Zone 3 will check in at the North Lot; those loading in from Zone 2 can check in at either booth.At each check-in booth you will see a table with a UCU team member waiting to give you some items for your booth, check you in, AND grab your swag from you. We fully understand that things are hectic in the morning and you are all hustling to get your booths put together. Believe us, we do! However, if you can please come straight to the check-in with your swag, first thing upon arrival, it will actually make things run more smoothly for you. WHY?1) We can direct you to your booth and minimize confusion or the possibility of setting up in the wrong space. (It happens–not often, but it really sucks to have to ask someone to move who is in the wrong space!)
2) We don’t have to hunt you down later and request swag when you are in the midst of setting up. We need to have these bag assembled well before doors open, so time is of the essence!
3) You can be sure you have all the appropriate materials for your booth, and get to say hello to one of us who can be of assistance throughout the day, and/or meet us if you are a new vendor with UCU!
We are ALL IN THIS TOGETHER so helping us keeps the cog working and then you can go set up and spend the rest of your morning doing what you need to do to have a successful day!
AFTER YOU’VE CHECKED IN
Quickly unload ALL of your gear in your designated booth space.
