Georgetown Peddlers Mall is one of roughly twenty locations in the Peddlers Mall chain, a family owned and operated group of flea markets that spans Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, and West Virginia and leases booth space to more than five thousand independent vendors across all of its stores. Unlike a straight antique mall, a Peddlers Mall store mixes vintage and antique goods with new merchandise, crafts, tools, clothing, and everyday household items, all supplied by the individual vendors who rent space inside the building. That vendor model means the Georgetown store restocks constantly, since the company adds products at each of its locations on a daily basis rather than waiting for a seasonal turnover.
Georgetown, home to Georgetown College and one of Toyota’s largest auto assembly plants in North America, has grown steadily as a Scott County commuter hub for the greater Lexington area, and the local Peddlers Mall benefits from that growth by drawing both longtime Scott County shoppers and newer residents looking for an affordable, browsable alternative to big-box retail. Inside, the format rewards wandering: booths run the gamut from serious antique furniture and glassware to bargain-priced new goods, so a single visit can turn up a vintage dresser in one aisle and a rack of new clothing in the next.
What separates the Peddlers Mall model from a single-owner antique shop, or from Georgetown’s other well-known antiquing destination, Georgetown Antique Mall, is scale and variety. Where a dedicated antique mall curates toward a particular era or category, Peddlers Mall leans into breadth, hosting hundreds of vendors under one roof with inventory that ranges well beyond antiques into general merchandise, making it as much a treasure-hunt marketplace as a specialty shop. The chain markets itself as the largest group of family owned and operated flea markets in its market area, and it stays open seven days a week year-round, closing only for Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, so shoppers rarely have to plan a special trip around limited hours.
Vendors interested in renting space can apply directly through the company’s website, a model that has let Peddlers Mall grow from its original stores into a chain that opened its most recent locations, including a Bardstown store, in the years since 2018. That continual expansion has kept the format consistent from town to town: walk into the Georgetown store and the layout, vendor mix, and daily-restocked booths will feel familiar to anyone who has shopped a Peddlers Mall elsewhere in Kentucky, even as the specific merchandise on offer changes booth by booth and week by week.
For shoppers in Scott County looking for a large, constantly rotating marketplace of antiques, vintage goods, and new merchandise under a single roof, Georgetown Peddlers Mall delivers the scale and daily-changing inventory that has made the Peddlers Mall chain a fixture of flea market shopping across Kentucky. Georgetown Peddlers Mall is a multi-vendor flea market and marketplace in Georgetown, Kentucky, part of the family owned Peddlers Mall chain that restocks new and vintage merchandise daily across roughly twenty locations.
