2013 ZACC Conservation Marketplace

 Be a part of the Conservation Marketplace at ZACC 2013!

Back by popular demand, this year's conference will include the Conservation Marketplace.  If your field project works with the local community by selling their handicrafts and other sustainable products, we want you!  This will be an amazing opportunity to highlight both your project and products!  Many conference attendees will be looking for that unique souvenir and attending zoo representatives may be looking for items to sell in their gift shops!
 
Here is a testimonial from a previous Marketplace participant; the Snow Leopard Trust: "The Snow Leopard Trust has thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the Marketplace in the past!  The Marketplace at ZACC is always lively and inspiring.  It is a great place to connect with other colleagues and vendors and talk more in depth about your merchandise and programs!"
