Success Stories

What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

• OA — Oakwood Community Market
  "We've done several activations now and each one has strengthened our relationship with the neighborhood. Customers love the variety, and honestly, it gives us valuable data on what products and brands resonate with our community. Plus, the activation fees help us maintain our vendor subsidy program."

• SO — Sonoma Valley Farmers Collective
  "Working with brands through this platform has been a smart way to diversify our revenue without disrupting our regular vendors. The activation team was easy to work with, and it created a buzz that got people exploring other parts of the market they might not have visited otherwise."

• HI — Hillside Harvest Market
  "The product sampling activation we hosted brought in a younger demographic we don't normally see on weekends, which was fantastic for our community vibe. The brand was professional, set up quickly, and our customers appreciated the free samples—we definitely saw increased foot traffic that day and several new regulars came back the following week."
