IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS NEEDED BELOW (IF APPLICABLE)

Read the rules and regulations to see if the products you will be selling will need any permits/certifications. Failure to provide needed permits and certifications will result in not being accepted into the market.

Vendor Permits (must submit with application)

To be considered, you must submit all documentation with your application. See application for further information. This is your responsibility and the City of Easley does not aid in gaining any type of permit. A reference sheet for your convenience has been placed on the next page.

  • Vendors must be licensed to conduct business in the state of South Carolina. The state requires all vendors (including resellers), with the exception of farmers, to secure a SC retail license and post it at their booth each week for the entire season. Please see https://dor.sc.gov/tax/registration/faq for more information.
  • Vendors are responsible for their own taxes (including sales tax), necessary permits, inspections (food, agricultural & nursery plants), and license liabilities.
  • All vendors planning to sell any food product, please see the South Carolina Department of Agriculture’s Requirements for Selling Manufactured or Processed Foods at Farmers Markets.
  • Any vendors planning to only sell retail (meaning you are only selling directly to the end consumer) will now be covered under SCDHEC. Any vendors also planning to do wholesale (meaning you are selling to other stores/vendors) are still covered under SCDA.
  • Canned/jarred/bottled products require analysis by a recognized processing authority, Clemson University. Products must be produced in a permitted DHEC approved facility. The permit must be submitted to the market manager at application.
  • Non-amenable meat species (rabbit, quail, etc.) are under SCDA and require an RVC registration and inspection. This must be provided to the market manager at application.
  • Eggs: Requires an SCDA Egg License. Eggs must be washed, graded, sized, and properly labeled and refrigerated at 45 F or below at all times. A copy of your licensed is to be displayed at your table and a copy provided to the market manager at time of application.

Please, include some good images of your products/farm below. This also helps us in the selection proccess to ensure we are not having multiple of the same type of products from other vendors being sold.
