Adding pop-up businesses as listings on HappyCow

Question

Hello! I'm wondering what the guidelines are--or if there are no official guidelines, what people's thoughts are--on adding pop-up food businesses on HappyCow. There are some vegan pop-up style businesses in my area (mostly baking businesses) that routinely sell their treats at local vegan restaurants (the restaurants themselves are already listed on HC). They don't seem to have other regular pop-up sites like some businesses do, like Farmer's Markets, but they will attend various local markets and festivals here and there. Is there a benefit to my adding these to HappyCow, perhaps to help others find them and follow them on social media if they're interested in keeping tabs on where they'll be selling their goods? Or does it not make sense for me to create a separate entry for a business whose regular scheduled location is at another vegan business (with a permanent location) that's already listed on HC?

Thank you!
Audrey

Hi there! These types of listings are definitely worth being submitted! Maybe not common in your area, but HappyCow has a handful of “Pop-up” listings currently in the directory. When adding such listings, just try to include as much information as possible. The editing team usually adds a little note such as “Hours and locations vary, refer to social media for additional information and updates”😄Hope this helps!
