Social Media
promotion for our 140th birthday bash has been consistent and frequent.
It will be interesting to get reports on business over the weekend. Is there a
connection between crowds for special occasions and sales?
Thursday’s
meeting in the Engagement Centre to discuss the upcoming online traders hub was
attended by the usual contributors and apparently covered some good ground with
at least one participant happy that the proposed online information will be
useful for traders. Apparently some of the information being considered apart
from individual leave and rents, is general market news, trading opportunities,
registration for maintenance issues, city news, and customer information like
cruise ship attendance.
String Bean
Alley container vacancy. There is plenty of speculation about who might take up
residence in the soon to be vacant container in SBA. Apparently the unofficial betting
market has Mick the Wood-burner at short odds – purely trader speculation.
Graves,
graves and more graves – a number of newer traders have been surprised at all
the press speculation about graves at QVM. The rest of us have heard it all before.
What can you say? – it sells papers.
Reports of
strong sales on Tuesday this week from a few traders in the top end. Apparently
that was put down to visitors to the city for ANZAC Day the following day. Many
regional visitors and even some as far away as NZ come to the city for ANZAC
services.
A quick
straw poll mid afternoon Sunday concluded that our birthday bash had attracted
big crowds on the Sunday but traders in the upper market experienced mainly
poor sales results. Crowds were out for the entertainment but not to buy.
String Bean
Alley – one of our traders is asking why we are looking at boring utilitarian
containers for SBA when there are far more professional options available
including the POD trialled in C Shed?

QVM Logistic Solutions have manufactured 6 of the Next Generation PODS (C Shed) many months ago and are available for inspection at 190 Franklin St.
These Pods were architecturally designed and manufactured with the approval of the Ex CEO Malcolm Mc Cullough.
Logistic Solutions had received 28 orders for these Innovative Containers from Stallholders and the Market would certainly benefit from this new look. Maybe you can talk to QVM Management and ask them why they are not giving us permission to use these Pods?
Perhaps you can also ask them to pay their outstanding invoice? " QVM Logistic Solutions
Thank you for that information -Ed.
