The 4-step Young Mogul journey
-
1
Spark & Create Your Product Stage 1 · Create
Start with something your child genuinely enjoys making—whether that is painted tote bags, beaded bracelets, cupcakes, comic books, potted plants or a simple coding game. Focus on manageable quantities made with care.
-
2
Cost, Price & Package Simply Stage 2 · Plan
Add up the cost of ingredients or materials together, then choose clear, round prices (for example US$1, US$2 or US$5) so young sellers can calculate totals and count change confidently on Market Day.
-
3
Design Your Market Stall Stage 3 · Showcase
Create a bold stall name banner, neat price cards and an inviting display. (Note: Whether tables and stall structures are provided by the organisers or brought by participants is currently To Be Confirmed.)
-
4
Sell, Connect & Learn on 12 December Stage 4 · Sell & Learn
On Saturday, 12 December 2026 (10:00 AM – 4:00 PM), young moguls welcome visitors, share the story behind their creations, make sales and celebrate what they have learned.

Questions from young creators & parents
Can siblings or friends share one market stall?
Yes! Collaboration is a core part of entrepreneurship. Siblings, friends or classmates can register together as a Team or Group Stall, dividing roles between making, display design and customer service.
What is the exact age range for participants?
The concept note outlines three age groups spanning ages 5–18 (Junior Moguls: 5–8, Young Moguls: 9–13, Senior Moguls: 14–18), while the promotional poster states ages 6–18. This discrepancy is flagged for organiser confirmation—parents of 5-year-olds are welcome to call +263 771 222 748 to confirm eligibility.
Are tables, chairs or gazebos provided at the venue?
Whether stalls, tables or display equipment are provided by the organisers or brought by participants is currently To Be Confirmed and will be communicated upon registration and venue announcement.
How much does it cost to register a stall or attend as a visitor?
Public entrance is listed at US$5 per person, subject to final confirmation. Participant stall registration fees (if any) and accepted payment methods are To Be Confirmed by the organisers.
