It is wrong to simply claim that if you get more than a given number of retailers in an area some would go out of business. It they were all fruit and veg for instance, then yes of course, but by getting a mix of different retail you can increase the all important footfall and spend in the area. A market can bring goods and produce to the town centre not otherwise available and thus attract more shoppers to the overall benefit of the town. Look at the French market when we get it, there is a lot of stuff sold there that we cannot get and if we had some of those stalls it would bring more people into the town. I am convinced the market will be a great success for the vast majority of Dover town centre businesses.
