Dear All,

I'm tooting my own horn here unashamedly. We are proud to be opening a brand new bespoke antique centre in Kendal, South Lakes. An ideal stop off for dealers and collectors on their way north or on hols in the Lake District.

Butterfield and French, the South Lakes Antiques Emporium will open on November 1st. We are publicising nationally and locally as well as using twitter, facebook and other online media.

We will have a very wide range of antiques and collectables including signs, advertising and tins.

Fresh stock and featured dealers as well as themed areas will be a regular attraction.

We are very aware that the centre needs to be clean, tidy and with a regular turnover of stock. We want to help buyers and sellers enjoy the experience of a friendly well run centre with enthusiastic staff and a can do attitude.

We will collect and deliver all over the UK so there is a chance for any dealers wherever located to stall here and hopefully make good regular money.

Please contact me if you want any details. And cost wise we're the cheapest in the area, cheaper than GB Antiques at Lancaster and Bygone Times in Eccleston. There are also encouraging deals for new traders to get bums on seats as it were.

We have large and small pitches, cabinets and a vintage garden area. We also have a nice small cafe over the road with fresh coffee and homemade food.

Cheers,
Jez.

Good luck with your new venture Jez - we will certainly visit soon! Regards Richard

Thanks Richard,
Hopefully see you at Elsecar on Sunday. We're having an opening do which all members are welcome to attend.

Jez.
