A happy and prosperous new year to all of our stallholders

Mynt Image NEWS ----- updated 14th  January 2022

Staff Needed

Mynt Image are looking for additional staff to assist us on Saturdays at our markets. Each market is assigned 2 staff and we are always looking for new paid helpers at our events. Staff may work as many Saturdays as they wish each month and will be assigned on their preferences and location. If they are only able to access one venue, then we will try to accomodate this. Hours are from 8am -5pm (approx). Duties involve helping Mynt Image set up their advertising and the halls, helping stallholders set up and leave, actively advertising the event throughout the day. Positions would suit a relative of a stallholder, young people aged 16+, students or retired people looking for some regular or additional casual income. Staff are paid on a daily basis. We value our staff just as we value our stallholders. Although staff will start out as helpers, if they drive, there is the potential to run their own events if they want to progress. If you know anyone who may be interested please email us at myntimage@live.co.uk

Which season is the best to sell our products?

Traditionally Christmas (October - December) Season was always the best. However in recent years this has not been the case. Customers seem to be buying far earlier for Christmas, spending more on gifts throughout the year and refurnishing their homes.

Spring Season (March to May: Customers seem to have money to spend. Homewares, artworks and photography and something for themselves all seem to sell well.

Summer Season/Tourist Season! (June to August)  Time to sell to tourists. Our markets shift to tourist locations where souveneirs are the focus. Smaller, compact gifts are in demand, and lots of them. The best time of year now for many stallholders if you have the right products

Pre-Christmas Season (August to October).  In recent years, these have often proved to be the best months for some stallholders. Customers have been buying early for Christmas. Cards, large Christmas gifts, advent calendars have all sold very well and peaked at this time of year.

Christmas Season (October to December) Traditionally the best, but the peaks of past years have not always materialised. On-line spending has reduced sales at this time of year, and expectations of stallholders have not always been met. Expect good sales, but be aware that other times of year can now be just as good if not better.

Risk Assessments (NEW 3rd Jan)

Risk assessments will be introduced during January and become part of the booking process. Risk assessments of your stall/business can either be your own or you will be able to use a standard Mynt Image template

Updated Covid measures

In light of restrictions easing  many venues are taking a step closer back to normality. Each venue has eased things slightly differently and we will keep you updated as to how exactly these changes affect you for each market as it approaches.

In line with new Government guidance, all stall holders are legally required to wear masks to help protect themselves and the public entering the events.  The public certainly seemed to feel safer approaching a stallholder who was clearly making the effort to keep everyone safe.  All stallholders will be expected to wear either a face mask or a visor unless they are exempt and wear an exemption lanyard. With the continuing rise in COVID cases we need to protect our stallholders and customers more. We are asking all stallholders to respect each other more by wearing face coverings.

We will be asking all customers to wear masks and to sanitise. Customers will be challenged by a member of staff should they attempt to enter our events without a mask/visor.

Ultimately our aim is to keep our stallholders, staff and customers as safe as possible and we look forward to receiving the continued support in doing so.
