Good afternoon
Hope you are well and managing in the heat! We at The Spread would like you to take a look at the two trading opportunities below and let us know if you are interested in trading at either of them.
Also, we'd really really like you to complete a short survey. It's a few short questions the answers to which will really help us.
We've been around since 2015 and operated markets in Primrose Hill, Hampstead, White City, London's first weekly vegan market in Hackney, White City, Southbank and we're now in Finchley and Camden. There are so many lessons that we've learned over the last few years and we'd really like to know everything we can be doing to be better.
If you can spare a few minutes, please click here. As a small token of our appreciation for completing the survey, if you're not already trading with us we'll offer you 50% off your first three months of trading with us which could be at either of these two locations:
Hawley Wharf Camden Market
We're excited to announce the launch of a new tenant directly below our food market in Camden. Opening this weekend, the 35000 square-foot Babylon Park is tailored to local families and features roller coasters, games and soft play.
This presents us with an opportunity because the entrance to Babylon Park is a few feet from the market. There is also a programme of Summer activities to increase awareness and dwell time.
Thanks to some brilliant traders, we've maintained a small presence at Hawley Wharf whilst the development comes to fruition.
Now we're looking for more to commence Saturday 2nd July, or as soon as possible thereafter.
If this is of interest, please let me know and I'll give you a call to discuss further.
When: Every Saturday and Sunday throughout the year (Sundays subject to demand)
Time: 11 am - 6 pm (Traders can vacate early by prior arrangement)
Equipment: We provide stalls
Permitted use: Produce only. No cooking on-site permitted
Fee: 16% of sales
Where: Directions
Victoria Park Finchley Market
On Sunday 24th July, we'd like to invite you to trade at our first ever Summer Garden Party taking place at our market in Victoria Park Finchley!
It's around the time that we opened in 2021 and generated over £23,000 in sales on the first day, ahead of an impressive £300,000 over our first six months.
The site is highly visible but we do need a critical mass of traders as it's very large.
The Summer Garden Party is to attract a wider customer base and will enable us to undertake significant marketing activities to promote your presence at the market and demonstrate that it's a place for a weekly, year-round weekly shop.
Amongst other things, there will be live music, children's entertainment, interactive games and treasure hunts and all of our proceeds (14% of sales) will be
donated to Great Ormond Street Hospital
We'll be following this with an Autumn, Winter and Spring party to maintain traction, keep occupancy and sales high and to keep Victoria Park Finchley an integral part of Sunday mornings for the local community.
When: Every Sunday throughout the year
Time: 10am-3pm
Equipment: You'll need to provide a 3x3 metre gazebo.
Permitted use: Produce, Street Food, Arts & Crafts.
Fee: 14% of sales
Where: Directions
Electric: Limited supply available
Please let me know if your company would be able to trade at either location
Just drop me a short response to let me know with a contact number and I'll give you a call next week and we might arrange some group viewings!
Looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great weekend.
Many thanks
Mike
