Shab Chic Marketplace


Shipping containers will double as pop-up shops in a lot near Monroe and Marshall across from the newly-opened Edge Alley beginning in late November.

In partnership with the Memphis Medical District Collaborative, Shab Chic Marketplace at The Edge will provide rentable retail space to start-up and small business owners to open boutiques, art studios, and more to create a “creative market and social hub.”

Interested business owners can apply for a retail space through Friday, Oct. 27.

Shab Chic Marketplace

The concept is centered on โ€œthe belief of inspiring innovation and creativity, promoting music, art, and above all, the businesses that comprise the marketplace,โ€ according to the vendor application.

The aim is to be an โ€œoutlet for small businesses to try their hand at running a small business shop in a nontraditional way.โ€


Ideal vendors are โ€œhip, unique, and trendyโ€ business owners.

Vendors will be selected by Nov. 1 and the shops will open to the public on Nov. 18.
