From the press release

The Custard Factory Flea Market is offering a free stall for 6 months to entrepreneurial university students in Birmingham.

Birmingham based students are being asked to submit a business plan explaining their creative talents what they want to sell at the market. If successful The Custard Factory Flea Market will provide the five candidates with 6 months free stall rent worth over £500.

The Custard Factory Flea Market is reaching out to the student population to encourage independent business thinking and to introduce entrepreneurial opportunities. University students with creative and unique talents with a desire to earn extra money and improve their business savvy should submit a proposal of one thousand words or less. The chosen candidate with the best proposal will get their own stall at The Custard Factory Flea Market.

The Custard Factory Flea Market is dedicated to bringing Birmingham shoppers truly rare, wonderful special items. They are now looking for clever Birmingham based students to bring their own creativity to the market, whilst giving them a good opportunity to make extra cash. Candidates should be creative, committed and be looking to sell items, or provide a service, that is something unique and that extra bit special.
