Dallas Scouts What's Next

After receiving applications from artists, product designers and entrepreneurs for its “The Next Big Thing” contest, the Dallas Market Center narrowed the finalists to BibBaby, an extra-long baby bib; EZ Off BBQ Tools, a set of barbeque tongs; and Freedom Gates, a decorative pet gate. All will be on display at the upcoming FINDS Dallas Temp Show in June, which runs concurrently with the Dallas Total Home & Gift Market. The final stage of the voting is open to the general public. Information and photos of the finalists’ products are available at http://dallasmarketcenter.com/contestfinalists along with instructions on voting by text message. Voting runs until June 26. The winner will be announced on June 27.
