Best of British is about to pop up
3:59pm Thursday 28th February 2013 in News
IT WILL be the best of British for the next fortnight in PopUp Moreton, which is welcoming three new tenants through its doors.
Visitors to the pop-up shop, in Old Market Way, will find three new tenants in the shop from tomorrow for the next two weeks who are all based within a 20-mile radius of Moreton.
Chipping Norton-based Aukward will be offering iPad cases, designed and made by hand in the UK, and bound using traditional bookbinding methods.
Joining them will be Provenance Reuseful, an eco/ethical company based in Draycott, near Blockley, which designs and produces high quality kitchen and tableware.
Meanwhile, Bob Fryer, who lives in Winchcombe, will be selling cards and prints of his images in the hope of opening his own retail outlet in the future.
He frequently takes striking photographs of the Cotswold landscape that have already been used in books and on websites.
Moreton is the first place outside of London to host a pop-up shop and is part of the national enterprise campaign StartUp Britain, which ran a series of pop-up shops in London late last year.
