TradeSpace Members’ Stories:
Epic Kidz
Meet Christina and Mark, the founders of Epic Kidz, an online store based in Calgary, Canada, specializing in fun and affordable play couches for kids. With four energetic daughters ranging from 2 to 10 years old, they struggled to find toys that promoted active play and creativity without breaking the bank.
Running their business from home had its challenges. As Epic Kidz grew, Christina and Mark faced space limitations and worries about keeping their inventory safe in their garage-turned-warehouse.
In July 2023, Christina reached out to Tradespace for help. They needed more space but didn't want to commit to a long-term lease or a warehouse that was too big for their needs.
Tradespace came to the rescue with flexible leasing options and a space that was just right for Epic Kidz. They moved into a 1500 sqft warehouse, giving them room to grow while still being able to adjust their space as needed.
Today, Epic Kidz thrives in their new warehouse, thanks to Tradespace's support. Christina and Mark can focus on providing great toys for kids, knowing their business has room to grow and adapt.
AM Cleaning
Meet Mariya, the owner of AM Cleaning, a small business in Calgary, Canada. Mariya started with a small team and a closet in a coworking space. Over time, as her business grew, she needed more space for production and storage.
Before joining Tradespace, Mariya stored her cleaning tools in the closet of a coworking space. However, as her business grew, she needed dedicated space for her equipment and inventory. That's when she turned to Tradespace for a more suitable solution.
Mariya chose co-warehousing with Tradespace instead of a traditional warehouse for a few reasons. First, co-warehousing offered flexible leasing options, so Mariya could adjust her space as needed without long-term commitments. Second, sharing space with other businesses helped keep costs down compared to renting a whole warehouse. Lastly, being part of the Tradespace community provided networking opportunities and support from fellow small business owners.
Mariya's success story at Tradespace shows how small businesses like hers can benefit from renting the space in the shared warehouse. With flexible leases, affordable options, and community support, Maria has been able to grow her business while thriving in a shared industrial space.
