English Market sets out its stall to attract startups

Newly established food producers will be salivating at the prospect of setting up shop in Cork’s prestigious English Market thanks to a new initiative aimed at attracting new blood to the 228-year old market.

The Startup Stall is an initiative devised by English Market manager, Orla Lannin and the City Council with the support of the English Market Traders Committee.

The initiative will allow the successful startup food producer use of a stall in the market for up to six weeks over the summer to trial products, assess demand for its products and gain valuable customer feedback.
