with Northwest in Motion
We bring the shop to the people!
Partner with Northwest in Motion to get your brand, products, or services in front the region's most engaged runners, cyclists, hikers, and skiers.
During the summer and fall of 2019 we hosted a popup experience retail and marketing presence at select running and cycling events.
Now with the coronavirus pandemic, our 2019 experiment with popup/mobile retail is an old-school solution that works with our present reality.
As you know, the pandemic has forced the cancellation of in-person athletic events. Instead of events, we are bringing our popup/mobile shop to King County's multi-use trail system.
As a result of the pandemic, Seattle's suburbs are open to experimenting with new business ideas. We are making it happen.
Contact us about selling your products through our popup/mobile shop.
