The traders had a meeting yesterday - but i don't know what emerged - the market is still a struggling not-for-profit entity wupposed to promote social inclusion. It may be a bit previous to try and get a profit from it now...or maybe investment from the private sector may bring more stallholders, more advertising and more customers - if it takes off. there would be no need for the council to run it....but increasing pitch rents now isn't going to help it thrive - i hope potential bidders realise that. |
