1 netil market shop. watch. munch. play Hello and thanks for expressing an interest in trading with us at Netil Market. My name is Sam and I run the Market. We aim to make our independent venture a place to SHOP, WATCH, MUCH and PLAY! We have a mixture of new and established traders, a vibrant community feeling and a focus on performance, music, art and creativity. We hope to provide the East-Londoner with something a little bit different, in essence, Not Another Chuffinʼ Market. The Story so far... Netil House A 50,000sqft office building near London Fields and Broadway Market, E8.The building was in a serious state of disrepair. It was neglected for fifteen years and then stood empty for five years. It attracted drugs and crime and in early last year it was squatted and gutted of anything valuable. In only eight months Netil House has become a thriving community of 102 small and start-up creative companies of between 1 and 10 employees. Within the building we have: music and recording studios, acrobats, artists, photographic studios, web designers, art restoration, furniture design, an internet radio station, a laser-cutting studio, jewelry makers and other artisans. We also have a café on the second floor, a Pilates studio, a thriving live-music venue and a 6000sqft gallery and dry hire space that has already been used for 18 major events exhibitions, films and music videos. Netil House has over 200 people working in it daily. It pulls 500 people each week on average to various events. Netil House has transformed the immediate local area. Tenants say it is a unique place to work and we have a long waiting list of people wanting to get studios.. We also intend by summer 2011, subject to planning consent, to create a green garden on the roof to be enjoyed by tenants and general public alike.

2 Netil Market Situated in Netil Houseʼs car park it consists of roughly 24 stalls for businesses in the building to help promote themselves and sell their work. The market now accepts traders from outside the building and aims to promote the work of artists, creatives and independent businesses of all types. We aim to involve and entertain the community with a variety of performance, art, music and other events. The market has a very family (and animal) friendly, relaxed vibe. We aim to keep it fairly reasonable in terms of product prices. We want visitors to see us as a destination, a place they can relax, shop, watch, munch and play. We are close to the already established and bustling Broadway and School Yard Markets and benefit from their passing trade. Trading at the market? How do I trade with Netil Market? Send us your business idea (if you havenʼt already done so) with a short description of what you would like to sell. Please include details of your products (including an idea of pricing), a selection of images and/or any links to websites. It would be good if you could include a contact phone number as I like to have a chat now and again. The manger will contact you to let you know if you are able to trade and if there is space available. How often do I have to trade - is there a contract? We are ideally looking for long-term traders who are interested in establishing a long term business. We do however accept short term traders from time to time but as you can understand we give preference to those who are in it for the longhaul. Your first week would be on a trial basis and we then ask you to book and pay in advance for four week blocks at a time. Please see below for details of the contract. Opening Hours At present we trade every Saturday (come rain or shine) from 11am 6pm. Traders can arrive from 9.30am to set up and you must be organised and ready to trade by 11am. An earlier set-up time can be requested but please bear in mind that our team may not have finished assembling the stalls until 10am.
