A market maker is a brokerage house or a bank that publishes a price at which the market maker is willing to buy a given stock and the price at which it is willing to sell the same stock (referred to as the bid and ask prices). Market makers in a given OTC stock create a market by standing ready, willing and able to buy or sell at the publicly quoted prices.
