The Cargo Emporium
Cargo, already a Portland institution of international and local artisan goods, has opened its doors to several hand-selected businesses to be a permanent part of the Cargo family and create one of the most vibrant maker’s scenes in Portland!
Some of the new permanent pop-up shops you will see nestled within The Emporium are:
Altar
Altar is a retail store and apparel brand that has proudly been serving Portland (and beyond) since 2010! We celebrate independent manufacturers and artists from across North America with a focus on the stories that are woven into their work. We use the phrase, “objects with meaning” because we believe in sharing the unique stories behind these pieces. Our flagship clothing line, Altar Houseline, is proudly made in America using deadstock materials and serves size gradations from sizes XS-6XL. Our apparel believes saliently in ethical manufacturing guidelines and sustainable production practices, top-to-bottom.
Appetite Shop
The sisters of Appetite Interiors curate a shop dedicated to inspiring a unique and stylish home. In the same manner we approach designing a space, we source our favorite plants, vintage and handmade decor to bring together special pieces for our shop.
You’ll find an ever rotating selection of handmade pieces from our studio, plants of all sizes and small home decor.
