BizStarts, the Milwaukee-based nonprofit that’s helped to mentor and train entrepreneurs since 2008, has announced its plans to open a marketplace that will allow its small business hopefuls to sell their wares and communicate with customers.
Dubbed BizStarts Marketplace, the store and training center is slated to open in a few months in a first-floor storefront at 161 S. First St. in Milwaukee’s Walkers Point neighborhood.
The nonprofit, which has long operated out of a suite at the Schlitz Park complex, wanted a place where students could have a space to actually set up shop, without having to spend time and money traveling to and renting space at farmers markets and other venues, said Dan Steininger, president and founder of BizStarts.
