The 406 Market is a woman-owned retail marketplace and e-commerce business located in Adair, Iowa, dedicated to supporting Iowa farmers, artisans, makers, and small businesses. Our mission is to provide year-round access to fresh, locally grown food and Iowa-made products while strengthening the local economy and creating opportunities for rural entrepreneurs.

Our brick-and-mortar storefront offers fresh produce, locally raised meats, eggs, honey, baked goods, pantry staples, coffee, tea, flowers, plants, boutique clothing, handmade gifts, home décor, soaps, candles, and other products made by local vendors. In addition to in-store shopping, customers can purchase eligible products through our online marketplace with options for nationwide shipping, local delivery, and free in-store pickup.

The 406 Market operates primarily as a vendor marketplace, providing affordable retail space and marketing opportunities for farmers, food producers, artists, and small businesses. Vendors can choose from monthly retail display packages, full-service online sales support, or special pop-up market events, allowing businesses of all sizes to reach a broader customer base without the expense of operating their own storefront.

Beyond retail, The 406 Market also serves as a community gathering place by offering affordable meeting and workshop space for local organizations, educational classes, and special events. By combining traditional retail with e-commerce, vendor support services, and community programming, The 406 Market fills a critical need in rural western Iowa, where residents currently have limited access to groceries, locally sourced food, and Iowa-made products. Our goal is to create a sustainable business that revitalizes downtown Adair, supports local entrepreneurship, and makes shopping local easier for everyone.
