Wazo Growth started as a business development firm serving tech startups in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles and Europe. For over four years, we helped software companies land sales meetings with major companies — from Tesla and Meta to Microsoft and BlackRock — through sharp strategy, branding, and lead generation.

At the same time, our team was experimenting with something completely different: culturally themed food markets and pop-up events across the U.S. What started as a side project quickly grew into a national series of vibrant markets that brought together food vendors, merch vendors, and community through music, culture, and high foot traffic.

And that’s when something clicked.

As we worked with more vendors, we realized that the tools we had built for tech companies — things like website funnels, branding kits, social media advertising, lead gen, automation, and outreach — were exactly what small businesses in the vendor world needed most. From food entrepreneurs to artisan brands and community sponsors, the demand was obvious.

So we decided to merge both worlds.

Today, Wazo Growth is a full ecosystem designed to support mobile and pop-up businesses — combining high-traffic markets with high-impact services. We don’t just offer vendor spaces. We provide the branding, digital tools, strategy, and support systems that help you turn your small business or side hustle into something scalable and sustainable.

We’ve gone from getting tech companies in front of billion-dollar clients to helping vendors build 6-figure businesses. And now we’re bringing all of that expertise, plus the community power of our events, together under one roof to help you grow.

Whether you sell tacos, candles, books, or juices, we’re here to help you thrive year-round — not just on event day.
