Fresh New Look For Chesterfield's Market

Tuesday 18th October 2011

Chesterfield Borough Council, in partnership with Destination Chesterfield, is to give a whole new look to the town's famous outdoor market stalls.


A fresh new look for Chesterfield's Market

The current stalls will be given new covers later this year (pictured above) to promote the Destination Chesterfield branding which is starting to appear on the town's gateways and visitor facilities.

Some of the covers will feature a Welcome to Chesterfield message with the others following the striking colours from the Destination Chesterfield branding.

Cllr John Burrows, Leader of Chesterfield Borough Council said: "Chesterfield's outdoor market is a big attraction for visitors and residents, and as such, it's a high profile facility that we should use to promote Chesterfield as a destination for tourism and shopping".

Peter Swallow, Chair of Destination Chesterfield said: "We're delighted to be able to help give a fresh look to the market stalls and to have such a prominent and visual area to promote Chesterfield."
