Military Business Market

A community market showcasing veteran and military spouse-owned businesses, makers, and local food vendors.

Discover the businesses, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit of Idaho’s military-connected community at the Mission43 Military Business Market on Saturday, October 17, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Idaho Outdoor Fieldhouse. Presented by Mission43 and Veteran Entrepreneur Alliance (VEA), this one-day market brings together veteran and military spouse-owned businesses from across Idaho for a community celebration of local entrepreneurship. Attendees can explore a curated mix of local makers, small businesses, food and beverage vendors, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs while getting to know the people behind them. The market offers more than an opportunity to shop. It’s a chance to hear business owners’ stories, discover their products and services, and make connections with members of Idaho’s military community. Whether you’re browsing for a unique gift, finding a new local favorite, or enjoying food with friends, your participation helps introduce these entrepreneurs to new customers and a wider community of support. For participating business owners, the event provides a place to showcase their work and build relationships with people who can help their businesses grow. For visitors, it’s an opportunity to turn appreciation for veterans and military families into direct support for the businesses they have created. Bring your family, invite your friends, and spend the day exploring what Idaho’s military-connected entrepreneurs are building. Everyone is welcome you do not need a military affiliation to attend.
