What do you need to bring to Youth Market?

I traded at the first market in September and did very well. The market was

well supported and many of us sold out! There are a few simple and general things that I recommend you take on the day:

 Products – You need to bring products otherwise, people will not see

your items.

 Signage and Pricelists – People want to know how much you are selling

your stuff for and who you are.

Pen – Very Useful Tool!

 Paper/Notepad – Needed to take orders for my products.

 Calculator – If you have awkward change, then this is a quick and easy

way to find the correct amount.

 Information about the product and samples – People want see what it is

and details about it.

 Bags and Boxes – you will need to put your item in something for people

to take it away in.

 Lunch, Snacks & Drinks – You need to make sure you have something to

eat and drink as you cannot really leave your stall.

Warm Clothes – It was a frosty morning in September and the next is in

December! I think it will be a lot Colder!!!

Food Stalls will also need:

 Disposable Gloves – A good thing to bring if handling food, although

never touch food after you have used them with money.

 Tongs, Slice, Knife & Other utensils – Never touch Food with your bare

hands, always use a utensil or gloves.

 Samples – People like to try, before they buy!

 Allergy Information – It’s essential that you bring details of all the

ingredients in your products. This is because anyone who is allergic to

any food, needs to see your ingredients.

I would like to wish all the Traders, a great day at the Youth Market! It is a

great experience! See you all on the 12th December 2015 in The Co-Op Alley!
