We are gearing up to sell the things our community needs to make, build and work: specialized electronics, traditional work gear, and other in-demand items from around the world, alongside things made or assembled right here by our Membership and regional companies.
Early stage. We are not selling yet, and there is no store or online shop to browse. This page describes what we are preparing and who we would like to work with.
| Range | What it means |
|---|---|
| Specialized electronics | The parts, boards, tools and instruments that makers and small manufacturers can find hard to source locally. This is a natural partner to our electronics training. |
| Traditional work gear | Dependable gear for the shop, the yard and the site: the kind of everyday equipment that people who work with their hands rely on. |
| Other in-demand items | Goods available internationally that our community asks for and cannot easily buy nearby. What we stock will follow what people tell us they need. |
| Made here | Products created or assembled by our Membership and by regional companies, so that what is built in the region can be found, seen and bought in one place. |
Two things, together. We plan to stock and sell items ourselves, and we plan to give Members and regional companies a place to sell their own products through retail space in our hubs and partnered spaces, priced case by case. The details, including how selling will work and when it will open, are still being settled, and we will add them here as they are.
Part of the Niagara Assembly Network. Our retail offerings begin with the Hamilton Hub, and the same approach carries to partnered spaces as the network grows. Want a place to sell? See Retail space, or post what you have on the Board.
