The current charge is £24.10 per stall per day for permanent licensed traders and £26.50 for casual traders. For those traders on the food market requiring electricity this is available at £2.25 per stall per day.


Applying to trade on Ormskirk Market

Once we receive notification of your interest we will contact you directly, however please be aware that vacancies are limited. When a suitable vacancy arises you will be required to complete a detailed application form and provide the following:

It is normal practise for all traders to stand as casual traders before being granted a licence to trade on a permanent basis.

 

To avoid overloading the market with the same type of products, applications may not be accepted from traders if it results in too many of the same products being sold. If there are no vacancies available you will be added to a waiting list. New traders should not attend the market unless requested to do so.
