afternoontea

Thank you both for your comments. Tinfoilhat - your suggestion would be great. However, although business is good, I would not be able to afford this option at the moment. Hence looking for something in the "middle" of what we offer now and your suggestion. Would be ideal though and it's my future aim.

i started my small business around 6 months ago and I'm really pleased with how it's going. We supply Afternoon Tea and depending on the clients requirments we either just deliver or offer a full set up service - which includes vintage crockery, table cloths, flowers, buntings etc etc. We have catered for a range of clients including Baby Showers, Birthday Parties, Romantic Tea for Two and a small wedding party. I am intrested now in expanding the business further and would like to open 'Pop Ups' but not sure how to go about this - for example 1. Should I buy a 'unit' of some sort to allow us to trade out of ( with the appropriate licence etc) ? 2. Should I approach people to use their facilities e.g Galas and fetes etc - pay to use the community centre for example ? Does anyone have experiences they would be willing to share or indeed any one With any advice would be appreciated.
