Retail Trade via Stalls and Markets

This report focuses on the flea, craft, art and food market sub-sector of Retail Trade via Stalls and Markets. According to the latest available statistics published in the November 2016 draft of the Department of Arts and Culture’s (DAC) Revised White Paper on Arts, Culture and Heritage, the craft sector contributed R3.3bn to GDP in 2010 and employed more than 273,000 people. The DAC’s 2014 National Mapping Study revealed that there were approximately 27,685 organisations within the broader creative and cultural industries (CCI) sector in South Africa.

A Dynamic Sector

Even though statistics indicate that this creative sector is a small contributor to the economy, it serves as an important incubator for small businesses and therefore contributes to job creation and economic growth. The dynamic nature of markets is demonstrated by The Neighbourgoods Market that started as a farmer’s market in Cape Town ten years ago and is now a market that offers food and designer crafts in Cape Town and in Johannesburg. The Cape Craft and Design Institute (CCDI) observed there has been a move away from mass produced goods often imported from Asian countries, back towards a desire for more individual, unique products. This is demonstrated by a change from the original concept of flea markets where shoppers expect to pick up bargains, to upmarket craft and food markets which have become a social experience.
