“The Milk District works side by side with independent businesses within our service area to strengthen each other and improve the overall neighborhood. This new space is an extension of our work in the community, allowing us to nurture a new generation of home-grown retail tenants. Businesses that come out of The Spot will end up all over the region, and will walk out of our doors more prepared for what it means to run a small retail shop.”
– MILK DISTRICT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR ZAC ALFSON
The Milk District Main Street (Facebook | Website) has just launched a new retail incubator to help foster more opportunities for local artists, makers, and entrepreneurs.
The new Milk District Spot (Website)is located at 2430 E. Robinson Street [GMap] and will serve as a space for retail-focused businesses to dip their toes into the world of brick-and-mortar operations while building a following and earning more revenue without taking any major financial risks.
Business owners who are interested in hosting a pop-up or individuals interested in hosting short-term activations and events can apply via the link provided above.
The first pop-up concept will feature Tribalfare (Instagram) which is owned by Ojas Akolkar, and will feature unique objects sourced from artisans around the world, from July 15-20. Akolkar moved to Orlando from Michigan during the pandemic.
