We're not another faceless tech company. We're crafters who got tired of being nickeled and dimed — so we built something better.
Makers Nest was born at a craft fair in the Fraser Valley, British Columbia.
We were surrounded by incredible artisans — potters, woodworkers, jewellery makers, textile artists — all sharing the same frustrations. Etsy fees were eating into their margins. Shipping was a nightmare. And local customers who wanted to support them couldn't easily find them online.
We thought: what if there was a platform that actually worked the way craft fairs do? Local first. Personal connections. No middlemen taking huge cuts. Just makers and the people who appreciate what they create.
That's Makers Nest. The craft fair that never closes.
Headquartered in British Columbia, built specifically for Canadian makers and buyers. We understand the unique challenges of selling handmade in Canada.
Our founders are active makers themselves. Every feature we build comes from real experience selling handmade goods — not a corporate boardroom.
No hidden fees. No surprise deductions. You know exactly what you'll pay before you sell a single item.
We believe the best transactions happen between neighbours. Porch pickup isn't just convenient — it builds community.
Every seller is verified. No dropshippers. No mass-produced imports. Just real artisans making real things.
We built our policies to protect you from scammers, chargebacks, and the headaches other platforms ignore.
You're a maker, not a tech expert. Our platform is designed to be intuitive from day one.
When you need help, you talk to a real person who understands your business. No bots, no runaround.
We're a small, passionate team of makers and builders based in British Columbia. We keep things lean so we can keep fees low and focus on what matters: helping you succeed.
