What every Founding Vendor gets
Founding 100: free membership for life
Founder numbers #1–#100 never pay the $89 annual membership. Numbers #101–#1,000 keep permanent Founder recognition and their badge tier, with the standard $89/year after the 90-day free trial.
A permanent vendor number
Vendor #17 is Vendor #17 forever. Numbers are never reused or reassigned.

On your profile, every listing, search results, customer orders and receipts.

Nothing upfront
90 days free, then your annual membership comes out of your earnings — never out of pocket.
How founding status is earned
- Apply with your business details, logo, storefront photo and current menu.
- Our team verifies your business — usually within a couple of business days.
- The moment you're approved and go live, the next vendor number is permanently yours.
- Your number and tier never change, and are never given to anyone else, even if you later leave.
Who we're looking for
- Restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, convenience stores, coffee shops, delis, food trucks and caterers.
- You've got surplus at the end of the day and you'd rather sell it than scrap it.
- You can pack a bag and hand it to a happy neighbor during a set pickup window.
- You're proud enough of your food to let a neighbor be surprised by it.
Founder numbers only go one direction.
Every approval takes the next number off the board. Claim yours while the early tiers are still open.
