Traders in Malmesbury sold their wares from newly-designed Discover Malmesbury branded stalls on Friday.
Malmesbury Town Team, Malmesbury Council and Wiltshire Town Council commissioned ten stalls to support local traders, offering them a secure and branded structure as part of the Discover Malmesbury campaign.
Gordon MacPherson from Malmesbury Town Team said: “The stalls are an extension of our Discover Malmesbury campaign, they make a fantastic addition to our increasingly popular market - not only do they brighten up the high street but they give the centre of our historic market town a lovely focal point.”
The market hosts up to ten traders at any one point and regularly hosts Yara's Fudge, Severn Bakery, Curds and Whey and Heathrow Owl Rescue.
Tickets for the second Boondocks Festival, which will be held just outside Malmesbury on July 8 - 9, are also available to purchase from the market.
Ashton Scott of Market Operations said: “I have spoken with regular traders and they say it has been a fantastic tool in helping promote their businesses, they enjoy socialising with shoppers and the great atmosphere that this buzzing little town has to offer.”
Malmesbury's Artisan & Farmers' Market is a community based venture initiated by the Town Team in response to the research carried out for the Malmesbury town Centre Plan.
It trades every Friday from 9am to 3pm at the Market Cross.
