New Retailer Initiative
The intention here is to test the potential for a retail revival by attracting a new, additional, quality retailer into Royston - Empty retail units are a nationwide concern. There is a universal decline in the numbers of smaller, independent businesses, especially those selling food, commodity and convenience merchandise. We want to start a campaign to repopulate vacant premises by running a pilot project to extend quality retailing in the town. Once we have a track record of cloning a successful business from one place to another, we will try and repeat the process as often as possible. We have allowed £10K for this task in Year One with a matching amount scheduled for Year Five.
