Rowan Roots Market
Rowan Roots Market
Celebrating Rowan-Grown Student and Alumni Businesses
The Rowan Roots Market provides a platform for Rowan student and alumni entrepreneurs to showcase and sell their products. Through a series of curated, pop-up markets held on campus, participants have the opportunity to gain hands-on retail experience while building visibility for their ventures. It is both a learning opportunity and a celebration of Rowan-grown innovation.
The Rowan Roots Market is not a competition or a showcase of early-stage ideas. It is designed for entrepreneurs who are actively running a business and ready to engage customers in a live setting. Participants are responsible for designing and preparing their own retail displays, marketing their business, managing sales, and interacting with customers throughout the event. Each market brings together students, faculty, staff, and community members in support of Rowan-affiliated ventures.
