This was our second trade fair, and we had the opportunity to sell our bath boxes and tote bags at Greenwich market! We improved our trade stand from the previous market and changed our product in order to market it at a higher price. We had another successful market day and all managed to improve our sales skills and meet lots of new people who were part of the Young Enterprise Company Programme. The market was less busy, but we still managed to break even and make a profit!

On Tuesday our Year 12 Young Enterprise Team, Pothos, travelled to Old Spitalfields Market to sell 2 of our sustainable products, tote bags and bath boxes. We aim to be as sustainable as we can with our limited budget. We would especially like to reduce the use of plastic bags and single use plastic products in the bathroom as they are a major contributor to landfills. The day was extremely successful, and we managed to sell the majority of our 
products, coming out of the day with a profit! We developed our sales skills, improved our entrepreneurial skills, met many new people and gained some followers on our social media networks. Scan the QR code to keep up to date with Pothos!
