German Market was a commercial failure!

The German Market standing in the bottom half of the Market Square from late November to almost Christmas was a commercial failure for the German traders. Only a few stalls did any amount of trade on weekdays, and most did very little. Saturday trade could not carry the week.

Traders are always keen to know how others are doing, and many of the German stalls were in full view of our traders during the pre-Christmas period, and on weekdays some were seen to do little trade all day. When we spoke with some of the German and Polish traders, they told us that trade was very poor except on Saturdays, when more people with money appeared to be about, and trade improved a little. To be fair, their prices were a great deal higher than Northampton people are used to, and many local people toured the German Market without spending a penny, and even told us so. Most traders felt happy to have them there, as did the council, hoping they would bring the shoppers teeming in, but this did not happen. No shops around the market, or our market traders themselves, reported greatly increased trade over the usual pre-Christmas period.

Liberal-Democrats still intend to close Town Centre Superloo!  After a drive into town, the first thing most people want to do after parking is to use the toilet, but it seems they’ll be right out of luck in Liberal Democrat controlled Northampton, where the best toilets in town - they have won many awards - are set to close after March 31st. Not just the best public toilets in the town centre streets but the only public toilets of any size.

How are the Traders finding things now?
Ever wondered how Northampton Market Traders are finding trade after
having been forcibly moved over nine months ago, despite the 11,000
signature Petition to let them stay where they were? Well, the market
traders' committee did a survey a month or two ago, and here are the
results: Market Traders' Survey.
