Due to the success of Chameleon, the pop-up shop in Dovercourt,
we have launched a second scheme in an empty unit in Jackson Road,
Clacton on Sea which opened on Friday 4th November
2011.
The Chameleon shop will be offered to four lucky retail
businesses, RENT & RATES FREE, and each
successful applicant will have a period of approximately 12 weeks
in the shop.
The project is ideal for people who have a small business at
home or are perhaps making their own jewellery, ceramics, cards,
crafting wood or running a shop on ebay selling collectables or
clothing, or would like to trial a new product.
The Town Centre Coordinator and a number of business support
agencies including will provide support and mentoring whilst the
tenant is in the shop to help make the most out of the opportunity
as well as helping to develop the business after their time in the
Pop-Up shop.
For an application form for your chance to trade in the shop or
for further information, please contact Rachel Fryer, Town Centre
Coordinator on 01255 686149 or e mail
rfryer@tendringdc.gov.uk or download a
Pop Up Shop Application Form.
The deadline for the final tenancy is
Friday 13th July 2012.
The Pop Up Shop is situated at 12 Jackson Road, Clacton on Sea,
CO15 1JA, shop telephone number: 01255 428590.
Current Tenant
The third business to go into the shop is 'Special
Occasions'. It is run by Jemma Keyes, whose family owns
Beautiful Brides in Old Road, Clacton on Sea. This is Jemma's
opportunity to trial 'special occasion' dresses and accessories
that they are unable to stock in the main bridal shop. They will be
selling Mother of the Bride/Groom outfits, Men's formal and
military hirewear, cruisewear, prom dresses, accessories, hats
& fascinators. They will also offer bag and shoe dying to match
your outfit.
