Over the past seven years we have worked continuously and successfully with small, hard to reach, marginal retail and market trader busineses in the Thames Gateway London area. Our programmes enhance the retail offer in a unique and innovative way - with a perticular emphasis on independent retailers, it allows them to compete more effectively with national multiples and demonstrates that working together really can make a big difference for the town centre. We provide the social regeneration which compliments physical regeneration in Town Centres.
