Free Independents' Day Promotion on Spalding Market Place

We, at Drive By Websites, are passionate advocates for "Buying Local".

Today, we've offered our services for free to local independent Spalding businesses to promote their Independents' Day offers on Spalding Market Place - www.spaldingmarketplace.co.uk

Independents' Day is to be held on Thursday, 4th July. Because of the amount of interest, these dates have been extended to include the 5th & 6th July.  It's been reported in the Lincs Free Press this week that retailers in Spalding are queuing up to be part of a national campaign to put the soul back in shopping in town centres.  More than 50 Spalding businesses have already signed up to be involved.

Theo Paphitis, star of the BBC TV's Dragons' Den is backing the national campaign.   He said: "I am supporting this year's Independents' Day Campaign as I believe that independent businesses have a vital role to play in our economy."

Many of the participating businesses have some amazing offers  - you will find a selection of these on the Spalding Market Place website - www.spaldingmarketplace.co.uk

Phil Scarlett, president of the Spalding Chamber of Commerce said "Spalding has a very strong selection of independent stores.   It is critical during these challenging trading times that shoppers support their independent retailers.

If you are interested in taking part in Independents' Day, contact Hills at office@hillsdepartmentstore.co.uk or Crescent Traders at atcta@austinjohninteriors.co.uk
