A New Year's Resolution - Support Your Local Market!

As 2013 gets underway, remember to support your local market, where you'll be able to pick up lots of what you'll need, including fresh fruit and vegetables, cakes and biscuits, eggs. 

You will be able to bag yourself a bargain, while at the same time helping to support your local town.

This forms part of North East Derbyshire District Council's Buy Local campaign.

November Markets Events a Monster Success! 

This November, the Love Your Markets team held its last series of Market Events. 

The theme of the events was Halloween, and everyone who attended had a scarily good time.

For more information about the events and to see pictures, please visit the November Events page.

Gazebos and Tables Available to New Traders!

Have you considered becoming a market trader, but have not got the money to be able to purchase your own equipment? Has this put you off from becoming a trader at one of our markets?

If so, fear no longer! The Love Your Market team have purchased a set of 8 Gazebos as well as 8 folding tables, which are specifically for new traders to use on our markets, to help them in those first few months to become established. And best of all, they are totally FREE to use! 

If you are interested in utilising some of this equipment, please contact the team on 01246 217550.

Fresh, local produce, great value and a friendly service!

That's what you can expect when you visit your local market in Clay Cross, Dronfield, Eckington or Killamarsh. 

And we're working with market stallholders and markets operators to help you to love your local market!  

We've held family fun days to get people to come along to their local market, and we are working to bring in new stall holders.  

This is all part of our Marketing the Markets programme, supported by BNED Leader.

There are four weekly markets in North East Derbyshire at Clay Cross, Dronfield, Eckington and Killamarsh.

The markets run on different days, and each one has its own unique look and feel. 

For more information on each market, including times, days and location, as well as information on the types of stalls available there, please visit the Markets section.

Fancy being a market trader?

For all those budding entrepreneurs, a market stall can be a great starting point for setting up your own business - its flexible and relatively risk-free. 

To help anyone who is interested in becoming a market trader, we have recently launched a free booklet which provides guidance and advice on how to do it. 

To download the booklet, or to view the information online, please visit the Becoming a Market Trader section.
