The retail woes experienced by Marks & Spencer, Carphone Wharehouse, Carpetright, House of Fraser and Mothercare, to name a few, are well known. They should consider adopting the Brue Valley Rotary Club’s retail business model as a solution!!!! At 8:00 am Brue Valley were in action ensuring the bric – à – brac, soft toys, tombola, clothes rack, books, videos, refreshments, furniture and many other useful items were ready. We experienced a steady stream of customers buying things they didn’t really want at knockdown prices. Our highly flexible pricing structure and fantastic service were appreciated by all. The bottom line, as they say, was a magnificent profit of £454.12 being raised for Charity !!!!!! Huge thanks are due to all who helped and in particular to Karen and Graham for organising our first Charity Fair in Castle Cary.
Well done all.
