COLORADO SPRINGS — A new sector hit the east aspect of downtown Colorado Springs Saturday in hopes of highlighting some of the smallest little companies in the spot.

1350 Distilling and Mash Mechanix Brewing Co hosted the annual “Christkindl Marketplace.”

All through the market place, food items vans, artists, sellers and area craft enterprises joined forces for a vacation reward sector.

Not only was the event a way for shoppers to shop nearby, it was also a way for the entrepreneurs to assistance each individual other.

“When you’re a modest small business owner, you want all modest corporations to succeed,” 1350 Distilling President Phillip Bragg explained. “If it was up to me, I’d inform everybody, don’t use Amazon. Store neighborhood, go to a community storefront or one particular of these neighborhood marketplaces in which you can really set your cash back into the neighborhood neighborhood and back again to people that are living and perform in your local community.”

Based mostly on the market’s accomplishment, Bragg instructed FOX21 Information he options to provide the industry back following 12 months.
