Love Your Local Market is being backed by Chesterfield Borough Council to promote the town’s markets between Thursday 28th and Saturday 30th June.
Chesterfield is one of over 300 markets taking part in the ‘Love Your Local Market’ campaign inspired by the Mary Portas’ report on the future of our High Streets. The main aims of the campaign is to attract new market traders to the Market and to highlight the importance that markets play in the heart of the local community, not only for retail but as a valuable community asset!
Throughout the campaign new traders can rent a stall from as little as £10 per day. There are also 200 free car parking scratch cards up for grabs for shoppers spending just £5 on any open air market stall so on your next visit you can park for free.
Councillor Nick Stringer, Executive Member for Leisure, Culture and Tourism said: “Chesterfield market provides great value for money and a fantastic range of products. We’re keen to attract new traders to the market and would encourage anyone starting up in business or even an existing out of town business to consider taking space during the campaign and see how well it works.”
