Learn More about the Phase II Renovation

The Baltimore Public Markets Corporation is nearing the completion of construction on Phase ll of the Hollins Market redevelopment - the reconstruction of seven stalls in the market shed. Construction began in May 2023, and includes these stalls:

Seafood + Poultry + International + Bakery + Salad/Deli + Grocery/Cafe + Pop-Up

Phase ii changes:

  • The new Grocery Stall at Hollins Market will offer dry goods, pantry staples, everyday grocery items, packaged prepared foods, and basic household items.

    The Grocery Stall will complement the offerings of other vendors within the market and provide access to healthy food that is eligible for SNAP/EBT purchases for residents in the surrounding neighborhoods.

    Hollins Market will be a one-stop shop for your grocery needs.

  • The Hollins Market Pop-Up Stall will offer an opportunity for start-up food entrepreneurs to test a concept before opening a permanent stall. The Pop-Up Stall comes equipped with six burner range with convection base oven, a griddle, split tank frier, refrigeration, a point-of-sale system, and more. Market staff will provide support and training.

    The Pop-Up Stall is sponsored by the West Baltimore Renaissance Foundation. Thank you to the West Baltimore Renaissance Foundation for financial support.

    Entrepreneurs may rent the Hollins pop-up stall on a weekly or monthly basis.
