1 m2 Market Details
The market is a social place. People meet at regular intervals, know each other and develop bonds. Most Viennese know markets only as visitors, with 1m² Market we want to change this perspective. The active participation in the market is unexpectedly easy. Having your own market stand makes it possible to try out your own products and business ideas in an uncomplicated way, to experiment with alternative exchange systems that are self-sustaining (e.g. exchange food for food) or simply to become part of the market ecosystem and get in touch with other people. 1 m² Market acts as a tool and a space of possibility, taking advantage of the 3-day exemption rule of the Viennese markets, where private individuals are allowed to run a temporary market stall without a business license.We believe that 1 m2 Market can foster micro-economies on a neighbourhood level via 17 markets of Vienna. The growing number of participating artisanal cooks and craft makers bring novelty to the local supply-chains.
