Reading the articles on this website you might be forgiven for thinking that renewal is all doom and gloom but many traders see opportunity.
Yes,
there will be significant disruption during the renewal process but many
traders are in the mood for experimentation as renewal implementation plans are
revealed and the normal day to day trading routine shows potential for new
trading arrangements.
Traders
in C and D sheds who have always suspected that the grass is greener over in
JKL Sheds will get a chance to try out the new turf when construction
starts in their quarter late in 2017.
But
one prospect that really lights up the eyes for traders is the possibility of
a
spot in a temporary market marquee on Queen St. Memories of the Therry St. marquee are
fresh in the minds of traders with its fresh new look, carefully manicured
stalls, lighting facilities, and a general buzz of excitement that even at one
stage included traders and customers dancing in the aisles.
And
let's not forget that big plus of one time set-up. Carefully curating your
display, and then being able to leave it on site without the hassle of daily
set-up and pack down is a huge attraction. Trading in the Queen St.
marquee will almost certainly be available only to five day traders and they
may also be expected to take advantage of extended trading hours as the market
experiments with its offer to customers.
