Apply to Become a Maker

As a small business owner, you know supporting local is the easiest
way to help your community thrive.

And we know you and your business are a critical ingredient to your small town community.

This is why we’re offering makers like you the opportunity to showcase your one-of-a-kind products in the Acre75 Gathered box, providing you with cross-Canada exposure for your business and town!

This is your opportunity to join the 120+ small town Canadian businesses we’ve partnered with so far.

Our Ask

Acre75 Gathered features full-size items that fit in our 11 1/8" x 8 3⁄4" x 3" box.

We appreciate the time and effort you put into every piece, so we will never ask you to donate your products.

We only ask our makers to share the cost of the retail price equally with us. This means offering a 50% discount off your regular retail price.

As a featured brand in Acre75 Gathered, you’ll enjoy these perks:

• Get your product into over 500 homes across Canada, reaching a highly engaged audience that appreciates quality, handmade goods and will experience your product firsthand.

• Enjoy category exclusivity for the season (e.g., if you're a candle company, your candle will be the only one featured in the box that season).

• Be listed on our product insert card with your business name, product description, where you are located and a fun fact about your town.

• Be featured permanently on our website on the Meet the Makers page, Past Boxes page and Acre75 Gathered Unboxed blog, with direct links back to your website.

• Be featured in our box reveal that will be shared on our social media channels, tagging you.

• Be featured in our box reveal email send-out (4300+ subscribers with a 40% open rate).

• Be featured in our Meet the Makers series on Instagram. This is a voluntary, collaborative reel where we’ll share behind-the-scenes footage of you creating or designing your product—or scenes from your small town, whichever you prefer! There is also an opportunity to go live on Instagram to share your story with our community!

• Be tagged in all re-posted subscriber unboxing videos.

• Receive photos and user-generated content to share freely on your social media and website!

• Have the opportunity to become a preferred maker for our corporate gift boxes

"Just wanted to tell you I had a customer in who said she gifted your summer box to a friend, and that friend loved my candy so much that she came in to buy more. The exposure your boxes provide to small businesses is wonderful. Thank you again for including my candy in the box!
