April Trader of the Month
Dave Riley - Bluebell Cottage Fudge & Nougat
We’re delighted to announce that our April Trader of the Month is Bluebell Cottage Fudge & Nougat, led by the ever-positive and passionate Dave Riley.
If you’ve visited the markets recently, you’ll know Dave not just for his delicious handmade fudge and nougat, but for his warm welcome and constant smile. His stall is always beautifully presented, drawing in customers with both quality products and a genuine enthusiasm for what he does.
Over the past few months, Dave has also significantly stepped up his social media activity, helping to showcase the markets online and support wider promotion - something that makes a real difference in attracting new visitors and celebrating our traders.
Beyond the stall, Dave has generously given his time to support our recent business enterprise project with students from Stratford-upon-Avon School. Speaking to Year 10 Hospitality and Catering students about his journey, the realities of running a small business, and life as a market trader, he has played an important role in inspiring the next generation.
Dave is a fantastic ambassador for Stratford Markets, and we’re incredibly grateful for the energy, positivity and commitment he brings week after week.
Congratulations, Dave - a very well-deserved recognition!
