Customers tell us that shopping at The Grapevine is like "a breath of fresh air". Many out-of-towners have told us that the shop reminds them of larger metro style boutiques. It's our unique mix of items that interest our customers most.

Nearly half of our vendors offer handmade items, while the other portion carry retail lines. Investing in a "boutique space" at

HOW TO LEASE A SPACE-
All vendors are required to make an appointment in order for the management to assess the quality, variety and minimal merchandise duplication of your inventory.
OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS-
The Grapevine...a unique marketplace, retains 15% commission on all vendor sales and 25% on limited consignment sales. Our sales close at the end of each month and vendor checks are issued on the 10th of the following month.
Our retail spaces are leased for a 90 day period. We want our vendors to give their business ample opportunity to get maximum exposure with area shoppers and to be sure they are a "good fit" for the marketplace and with our other vendors. After the initial 90 day period is up, we can offer a month-to-month rent in most cases. We only ask for a 30 day notice of your decision to vacate. The first month's rent and last month's security deposit is required with signing of initial 90 day lease.
