TRADE WITH US

We would love to hear from independent people and businesses with a good offer and a genuine reason to be here. You might run an established shop, provide a hands-on service, sell specialist food, trade at pop-ups or be working up your first business idea.

You do not need a glossy pitch or years of trading behind you. We are more interested in what you do, why customers will care and how your business could add to the mix. If the idea is clear, well considered and full of potential, let's have a conversation.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU

Tell us about your idea!

We are looking for independent spirits. Whether you are an artisan maker, produce dam tasty street food, a specialist independent retailer, or someone with a decent idea, we want to provide the platform for you to thrive.

The goal is to curate a high-quality, authentic market experience that serves as a nucleus for the town's community, driving footfall 6 days a week.
