Covid19 and re-opening your Market
Based on experiences of other Managers who have already opened their markets, we have put together a series of preocedures and ideas which we think may help you to re-open your market safely.
Market Managers Toolkit
Successful markets need a successful management organisation backed by clear rules to make sure that the shoppers know what’s on offer, have confidence in what they might be buying and that stallholders understand their responsibilities to contribute to a thriving market.The information we have developed is to give you an idea of what we believe is required to set up a Farmers' Market and how to make a successful start and maintain a quality contribution to your local community.
Marketing your Market
Attracting enough customers to your market is crucial to its success. It’s is all about the external marketing that you do – how you tell people about your market, where it is and when it runs.There are lots of things you can do. The challenge is choosing the things that have the biggest impact and are most cost effective.
This section gives you an idea as to what you need to do to set up a new market. We have developed a short questionnaire (click here) which will help you make your mind whether to continue in your quest and also to help us to answer any questions. Click on Read More for more detailed information.
Market Insurance
If you are covered by an external organisation's insurance (e.g.a Village Hall) MAKE SURE they write to you explaining what you are covered for and the amount ( i.e. not only inside the Village Hall, but outside and anywhere else if you have signs on the highway etc)
