Description
TO NOTE: This space is NOT available for coffee or hot drink operators due to the current tenants of this station.
Outdoor mobile opportunities on stations offer prime retail space, strategically located in high-traffic areas such as station entrances, exits, and unused car park bays. These flexible spaces are perfect for various commercial activities, from food vans and dessert trucks to artisan markets and other mobile enterprises.
For those interested in securing an outdoor retail space, it is essential to meet the following criteria:
Availability – All outdoor mobile retail opportunities are subject to availability.
Screening Process – A thorough screening is conducted by the Lead Property Consultant of Govia Thameslink Railway.
Size and Type – Detailed information on the size of the mobile unit and type of retail is required.
Visual Documentation – Images of the vehicle or setup must be provided as part of the application.
Mobility Requirement – The retail unit must be fully mobile. Enquiries lacking this will not be considered for screening.
Provision by Enquirer – The retail vehicle or setup must be provided by the enquirer.
Sustainability Alignment – To align with station sustainability goals, mobile entities powered by solar energy or batteries are strongly preferred. Generators, while feasible in some cases, can introduce excess noise and present health and safety concerns, potentially undermining the viability of the proposition.
Station Power – On some stations, where solar or battery-powered setups are not feasible, a payment for utilising station power may be required. This should be factored into your proposal if station power is necessary. The landlord can provide this information.
These factors are critical in ensuring that each operation integrates seamlessly into the station’s dynamic environment, while also supporting sustainable practices. By embracing these unique outdoor spaces, businesses have the chance to create vibrant retail experiences that enhance the commuter journey, while tapping into a diverse audience.
Whether you're an established brand or an emerging entrepreneur, these outdoor retail opportunities provide a valuable platform for showcasing your offerings in high-footfall areas. By adhering to our thorough process, we ensure that each retailer complements rather than competing with established tenants and the existing station environment, adding value to both commuters and the local community.
