The Keys Market: A Revolutionary Community Ownership Opportunity!

Something transformative is happening in Sucker Garden, Sint Maarten—and Vicky's Keys is at the heart of it. We're thrilled to announce the planned development and reopening of The Keys Market, Sint Maarten's first truly sustainable marketplace where hurricane-resistant design meets eco-innovation, community ownership, and Caribbean entrepreneurship.

More Than a Market—It's a Movement

The Keys Market isn't just another commercial space. Built from upcycled shipping containers and powered entirely by Caribbean sunshine, this groundbreaking project represents a new way of doing business in the Caribbean. Located on Kings of The Sea Drive in the heart of the Merriment Green Community, The Keys Market is where sustainability, profitability, and community empowerment come together.

As part of the Vicky's Keys ecosystem—alongside our eco-lodge, permaculture gardens, and the upcoming HAICI Agricultural School—The Keys Market embodies our commitment to sustainable tourism, local food security, and community-driven economic development.

Flex Spots Are Reopening!

We're excited to announce that Flex Spot vendor applications are now open! Whether you're a local farmer, artisan, food entrepreneur, or wellness professional, The Keys Market offers flexible, affordable options to launch or grow your business:

Market Stalls: Perfect for testing new products or seasonal businesses, starting from just XCG 13 per day
Traditional Vendor Spots: Bring your own setup and pay only for the space you use—ideal for established vendors
Premium Eco Business Units (EBUs): Hurricane-resistant container units with modern amenities, available for lease or purchase, starting from XCG 678 (10ft) monthly

From authentic Caribbean cuisine and artisanal baked goods to handcrafted jewelry, wellness products, and professional services—we're building a diverse, vibrant marketplace that celebrates Caribbean culture and sustainable innovation.

Introducing The Keys Market Community Ownership Model

Here's where it gets truly revolutionary: The Keys Market is pioneering a community ownership model that puts the power directly in the hands of those who believe in sustainable, community-driven commerce.

This isn't just about renting space—it's about owning the future of Caribbean entrepreneurship. Through our innovative ownership structure, vendors, community members, and visionary investors can become actual stakeholders in The Keys Market's success. When the market thrives, you thrive. When we grow, you grow.

This model ensures that:

Profits stay within the community
Decision-making power is shared among stakeholders
Long-term sustainability is prioritized over short-term gains
Local entrepreneurs have genuine ownership in their marketplace
The community benefits directly from The Keys Market's success

The Vicky's Keys Connection
