“Live Local. Love Local. Shop Local!”

Forks Trading Company is a specialty shop across the bridge from our studio. The shop offers a wide selection of products and super friendly staff that will help make your shopping experience one to remember! We love shopping there and they LOVE seeing dancers and their families. Here are some of the many reasons we love them:

Shop Local!

Did you know that Forks Trading carries products from over 150 local makers? By shopping at Forks Trading, you’re not only supporting one wonderful small business in the Forks Market, but you’re also supporting small local artisans from all across Manitoba! Forks Trading carries products from all sorts of local makers and every time you shop you have the opportunity to support someone new. Every bit of support goes a long way!

“Beautifully Imperfect and One-of-a-Kind”

One of the best parts about shopping locally is that you are guaranteed to find something truly unique and special every time! Forks Trading is filled with such diverse and unique products, we’re sure that there is something there for everyone to enjoy. Some of their selection includes jewelry and accessories, pottery, kitchen wares, stationary, beauty, outdoor gadgets, sweet and savoury food products, and kids toys! We guarantee you will find something new and exciting every time you visit. The studio staff is always popping over to pick up a quick gift for themselves or their families!

Local Pickup and Free Delivery:

Although we always appreciate a good in-person shopping experience, we understand that this decision can be hard to make right now. Although being faced with some of the hardest times for small businesses, Forks Trading has continued to put their customers first and now offers free curbside pickup and free delivery anywhere in Winnipeg! You can shop online through their website https://forkstradingcompany.com/ and find everything that’s offered in store, online! Your order will come packaged beautifully in their custom made recyclable gift bags!

Did you know that Forks Trading also has a sister store in the Market? Two Rivers is located on the lower level of the Forks Market and offers an extension of products from Forks Trading! Something that not many people know is that you can find their exclusive Winnipeg neighbourhood collection only at Two Rivers (but don’t worry you can also find these on the FTC website)! There is also a selection of super cool Winnipeg merch from local makers as well as some iconic local food items such as Pic-a-Pop and Old Dutch Chips.
