What’s 600 Pounds, a Little Salty & Drops It Like It’s Hot?
A New In-Person (Yet Contactless) Way to Shop Fresh Spices in Louisville KY
Since moving our business (and ourselves) to Louisville in 2018, we’ve been blown away by locals’ support of our business. So many Louisvillians now shop online with us and get their spices delivered to their door or they pick them up at our secure lockers outside our Mellwood Art Center factory. We, along with our fair-trade farmers, are beyond grateful for the support!
Many locals have asked if we’re going to open up a retail storefront. Unfortunately, our factory has to be closed to the public for health and safety reasons and we don’t have plans for a retail store, but we’ve created a fun way to still be able to shop in person thanks to our new spice vending machine.
It’s literally the first of its kind, and we hope you love it. Come by and check it out! With a swipe of a credit card, you can pick up fresh spices virtually any day or time. Here’s all the details:
Location: 1860 Mellwood Avenue, right outside of Suite #268, just inside the doors up the ramp and to the left of the rear loading dock (see google directions here)
Hours: Open to the public everyday, 8am-10pm EST,
Payment Methods: It only accepts credit cards
How it Works: Enter your credit card, wait for it to accept it (it’ll tell you), then pull out your credit card and make your selection. Right now you can only purchase one item per credit card transaction, so if you want more than one spice, you have to enter your credit card again. We know that’s a bit of a pain, so we’re working on solutions to make multiple purchases easier in the future.
Come Check it Out & Win a KitchenAid Mixer + Spices!
To celebrate the launch we’re giving away a KitchenAid stand mixer and organic spices (est. value $550+)!
How to win: Get 10 entries to win by visiting us taking a picture with the machine. Or, if you’re not in Louisville, you can still get 10 entries by photoshopping yourself into a picture with the machine (just download some of the pictures on this page), and posting it on social media with hashtag #pinchspicemarket.
You can also get up to 4 entries by sharing our post on Facebook here and/or Twitter here with hashtag #pinchspicemarket. You’ll receive 2 entries for each place you post it.
Contest ends June 30, 2021 and the winner will be announced on our Facebook page. All the rules and details can be found here. Good luck!
