traders
2020 sees changes to the structure of Trade Stand content to encourage participation from local companies.
Catering and Food provision
During December, January and February priority will be given to companies in Bromyard and North Herefordshire to commit to providing as wide a variety of catering choice as possible. Companies producing food products for home consumption may choose between a location close to the food village or inclusion in a food marquee where food preparation/cooking demonstrations will also be encouraged.

Shopping Village
We are also keen to again provide visitors with the widest possible choice of products and services where there will be no restrictions regarding where traders may be based. Please clearly indicate on your application form what your stand content will be so that we can plan the layout accordingly.
Greenland
Another group of traders we strongly want to encourage are those whose products/services benefit the environment. Stands are likely to fall into one of three categories – Energy savings, Used clothes and new vehicle technologies. We very much hope that local school uniforms will be exchanged/bought and sold in addition to other clothes probably benefiting local charities. Car dealerships in Herefordshire will be encouraged to show off their electric/hybrid vehicles and plans.

Crafts/Hobbies
In years past the craft marquee has catered for traders unwilling to take an outside stand in the Shopping Village in addition to a handful of exhibitors highlighting craft skills. This will again apply for 2020 but with a greater focus on crafts and particularly demonstrations of craft skills. Publicity for demonstrations and opportunities for public participation will be a priority for the 2020 Bromyard Gala.
