Our first fair on 2019 was Saturday 30th March in Albury. It was a beautiful day – a real contrast to the ice and snow we faced for the March fair in 2018!

Visitor numbers were very good for the time of year, with just over 140 people recorded coming through the door.

The visitors joined us were very enthusiastic about the fair and commented on the great variety and high quality of the products on offer. They spent well, with 81% of customers making a purchase and the average sale being £11.53.

Two of our stallholders did not cover their table cost, but most others had a good day of sales. The average amount taken per table was £88.10.

There were some sellers who had a great day selling, with 7 tables taking over £100, and three of those taking over £200!

It was a lovely atmosphere at the event with a steady flow of customers throughout the day. We have had many positive comments and multiple re-bookings for the fairs later in the year.
