Market Relaunch

On the 9th of May the Indoor Market was officially re-launched following the extensive work done throughout the building. The 8th Earl of Powis, Dr. John Herbert, was invited to visit Oswestry Markets to unveil a new plaque to commemorate the occasion. Various people were invited to celebrate the occasion including the competition initiator Mr. Mike Coppock and the High Sheriff. The press also came on the day to help promote the occasion.
The new blue and white canopies are now in place and have really improved on the visual impact of the hall, and ties the whole colour scheme together. The new lift is also being well used, as are the new downstairs disabled toilets. It has been a long road to completion but certainly one well worth it, as we now have a much improved market facility which we are now all able to build upon.
Local Business Accelerator
Well done to Siop Cwlwm based in Oswestry Indoor Market who won the Regional Local Business Accelerator competition in the Advertizer in January. They set up a business over a year ago selling a number of Welsh language books, cards, gifts and household items. The competition, backed by the Prime Minister provides the winners with a substantial allocation of free advertising in the Tizer as well as free business mentoring. This may even be from Deborah Meaden from the Dragons Den if they are really lucky! This is a fantastic achievement. Well done to Lowri and Linda who have worked hard to put their business and Oswestry Market on the local map.
Farmers Market
Come and visit our Farmers’ Market held on the Bailey Head on the last Friday of every month. A great range of freshly produced food and drink available to customers by 20 plus local farmers and produces. Sample a variety of cheeses, cakes, jams, pastries, butter, olives and quality pork, beef, venison and chicken. Quite simply we boast that this market is one of the best in North Shropshire and is complimented by the famous annual Oswestry Food Festival which is held on the 9th and 10th of July
