Between 2017 and 2019, our current team worked for Town and Country Markets (operating under WMC Retail Partners) who managed a variety of market halls and car boot sales across the UK. The company specialized in revitalizing traditional market spaces, focusing on modernizing their operations while preserving their community appeal. Here’s a summary of their expertise:

Market Halls

  • Operated several market halls, including prominent locations like New Watford Market and others in Shepard’s Bush, London, Eagle Market, Derby and Wellington Market Telford.

  • Introduced initiatives aimed at increasing footfall, such as themed market days, promotions, and events.

  • Managed trader relations to ensure diverse and high-quality offerings, including food, crafts, and vintage goods.

  • Faced challenges with declining footfall and competition from retail chains and online shopping, which impacted some market halls’ viability.

Car Boots

  • Organized regular car boot sales, appealing to bargain hunters and independent sellers such as Walton St, Hull and Shrewsbury Harlescott

  • Focused on creating accessible, community-focused environments for casual trading.
  • Leveraged car boots as an additional revenue stream for underutilized spaces near market halls or as standalone operations.

The knowledge and experiences highlighting the complexities of managing traditional markets in a rapidly changing retail environment is what drives the objectives for Castlepoint Markets. A focus on blending heritage with innovation provided lessons for our current market management strategies.

At Castlepoint Markets, we are passionate about preserving the heritage of traditional markets while integrating modern practices to meet today’s challenges. Let us help you transform your market into a space where businesses flourish, and communities come together.
