There’s still time to cast your vote to find Shrewsbury’s favourite Market Hall Trader of the Year for 2018.
With the success of Shrewsbury Market Hall having been crowned Britain’s Favourite Market in January, shoppers are being asked to cast their vote to find the Market Trader of the Year for 2018.
People visiting the indoor market before April 20 can nominate their favourite trader to win a Mayor of Shrewsbury Award.
The trader with the most votes will be presented with a trophy at the annual Mayor’s Awards ceremony at the Guildhall on May 9.
Since the inception of the award for Market Trader of the Year in 2014, previous winners have been The Market Buffet in both 2014 and 2017, Amess Brothers fruit & vegetable stall in 2015 and Café Aleoli in 2016.
Nomination forms are available in the market and completed forms should be deposited in the ballot box provided.
Duplicate entries will not be counted.
Helen Ball, town clerk for Shrewsbury Town Council, said: “For anyone who hasn’t already voted, I would urge people to cast their vote for their favourite Market Hall trader. There is such a fantastic variety of businesses there and it won’t be an easy decision to make.”
Mike Cox, outdoor and recreation manager for the Town Council, added: “We have so many wonderful businesses in the Market Hall and this provides a great opportunity for the customers to vote for their favourite Market Trader. The competition is always tough, and I would encourage everyone to pop along to the Market Hall and cast their vote – they all count!”
