Abstract/Summary
The purpose of this project is to discover a new way of bringing communities together when it comes to buying, selling and trading goods locally. Many smaller vendors struggle to connect with their communities while buyers often become frustrated with the lack of marketing and advertising for these markets and sales. With the help of a mobile app, sellers will be able to list their markets and sales to buyers who will be able to easily locate these local events. This concept eliminates the frustration of trying to find second-hand and fresh goods by putting them all in one place, giving buyers and sellers a centralized platform. By applying the research and design methods I have learned during my time at Cal Poly, I hope to create a platform that both organizers and shoppers can use to list and find markets, be able to keep track of future events, and support local vendors and families.
