If your freelance business is focused on sales, or you’re an event organizer, there are times when you’ll need a vendor contract. In fact, you may need a vendor agreement on a regular basis. Having access to a vendor contract sample makes it easy to replicate what works, and avoid writing a contract for every engagement. 

A vendor agreement typically includes two parties, a vendor and an organizer. The vendor sells goods or services at an event run by the organizer.

As a business agreement, a vendor contract should also include:

• The time frame of the event, including access for setup.
• The fee to be paid by the vendor to the organizer.
• Any requirements such as a stall, table and other items often provided by event organizers.
• Compensation to the vendor if the event is cancelled or postponed. 
• The ability for each party to sign-off on the agreement, with e-signature being preferred.
  

The format of an agreement may vary, but if you get a solid vendor contract template, you can use it time and again.‍
