Cochise Crafters Holiday Boutique Contract
Please read ALL the information below before submitting your application and paying your fee.
Cochise Crafters will be hosting a holiday boutique at the Mall at Sierra Vista, Saturday, November 17 thru Monday, December 24.
Hours of operation will be Fridays 10-7, Saturdays 10-7, and Sundays 12-6. Black Friday will be 8-7, and Christmas Eve will be 10-4.
This will be set up in a regular storefront with sales handled thru a central checkout. You DO NOT HAVE TO BE THERE. The facility will be secured when not open for operation.
This event is subject to the availability of the selected storefront. If storefront has been rented out to a regular tenant or we do not have enough vendors, this event will be canceled. If this happens fees will be refunded.
Spaces will be 8 ft wide by 6 ft deep floor space for wall spaces around the perimeter of the space. This includes the use of vertical wall space if desired. The vendor will be responsible for providing black shelves (for spaces with brackets already in place) and slat wall brackets if using the wall. A 6 ft table will be provided upon request. There is a 2ft x 4ft space above the slat wall for a banner or signage if desired (to be provided by the vendor).
A variety of interior spaces are available. These will be 6ft tables only with customer access from both sides or hanging space only, to include one side and an end cap of a slat wall freestanding fixture.
Fee for the ENTIRE 18-day event will be $250.00 per space. That's less than $15 per day! You may rent as many spaces as you like at $250.00 each.
Vendors must provide their own displays with the exception of tables. Additional tables MAY NOT be brought in without prior approval from Cochise Crafters. Displays must fit within your allotted space and may not be over 4' tall. This is to allow a clear line of sight for security purposes and to not block your neighbor's booth. Displays may not be attached directly to the wall. Shelf standards are already in place for shelving in select spaces. Other displays such as hanging grids, pegboard, etc. must have prior approval and proper hanging devices used.
The vendor must commit to the ENTIRE EVENT. No merchandise removal will be allowed, although you may bring in more items anytime. This is a security and inventory control issue to help keep everyone's bookkeeping straight.
Vendors will be expected to work a minimum of 3 shifts during the 5-week event. Vendors must not be afraid to handle money and use our check out system. Shifts will be in 4-5 hour blocks. The schedule will be available at move in during the week prior to opening. A $100.00 FINE will be imposed on vendors who fail to show up for their shift and merchandise will not be released to the vendor until the fine is paid in full.
Merchandise must be tagged using a 1” split ticket and contain the following information
ID# - to be assigned
Inventory # - this will be determined by the vendor
Price
Fee must be PAID IN FULL at time of contract signing. There will be NO REFUNDS, (with the exception of the event being canceled) for any reason as we must pay our expenses up front for this event. These expenses include rent to the Mall, insurance coverage and advertising for the event.
As this is a boutique, all sales will be handled thru a central checkout. Payment of vendor sales will be made within 2 weeks AFTER the final day of the event. We will be using Square as our credit card processor and the fee for this service will be deducted from your sales prior to the issuance of the check.
Cochise Crafters will not be responsible for any theft, damages or injuries related to the vendor's participation in this event.
By submitting this contract and payment, I agree to accept the above-mentioned terms and conditions of this contract.
