FAQ

Not to obtain Owners Access. The MIA Marketplace is a subscription for Owners (and free for Customer use).
What is Owners Access?
It allows secure pages of the Made in Akron website to only be seen by Owners of businesses in the Akron area and not the general public.
What does Owners Access provide?
MIA Marketplace, Akron in a Box™, Custom Boxes and BYO(A)B information and pricing.
What is Akron in a Box™?
Our goal is to promote small (and very small) Akron businesses to both residents and visitors to Akron, helping Owners build brand awareness and grow sales.
With our physical marketing, like postcards and boxes, Owners can share their story and business in a tangible way that online marketing just can't provide.
Locally owned micro- & small-businesses sponsor each box, helping Akron residents and visitors discover and connect with Owners in-store & online.
Where is Akron in a Box™ sold?
We're in discussion with hotels, restaurants, gift shops (including airport & hospital gift shops) and retailers in the Akron area to sell Akron in a Box™. Once we're operational, we anticipate Akron in a Box™ will be sold at 15+ locations across Summit County and online at MadeinAkron.com
