As the fascination with Scandinavian design continues to captivate the rest of the world, it makes sense the HAY Mini Market experience will be making its way to more North American cities. The HAY Mini Market will pop-up in seven [Nordstrom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kittys-50th-anniversary) stores between January 8 and February 7, 2016 in cities that span Vancouver to Virginia.

The HAY Mini Market pop-up experience has been traveling the globe since 2014 and signals an interest on the part of consumers in one-of-a-kind, authentic merchandise that can be traced back to its designer.

The HAY Mini Market has previously popped up at the [MoMA Design Store](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moma-mart) in New York City. Nordstrom has previously partnered with [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-clock) to feature a handful of independent sellers' merchandise in stores.
