Having shut the old outdoor market at Salford Precinct and relocated traders to its indoor market, that is now being replaced with a new indoor market on Briar Hill Way, due to open in September with around 14 traders ranging from food to clothes. Salford Shopping Centre states that it "will provide a completely different environment, whilst also generating new job opportunities...encouraging existing customers indoors, as well enticing new shoppers who were perhaps unaware the market that was there." Salford Shopping Centre Manager, Nick Pitt, says: "We are very excited about the new and improved market...The existing market has provided a great home for our loyal market traders, but the time has come to modernise and create something new for all shoppers. "We pride ourselves on the strength of our identity and are hugely invested in developing the existing market brand so that it sits within the Salford community" he adds "Not only to strengthen our overall offering but to make the market itself much more visible to the people of Manchester." Further details are available at www.salfordshoppingcentre.com

| In the old days the outdoor market was really good. Plenty of copy DVD,s CD,s Knock off clothing, just about everything. You were protected by the local mafia for £2 a stall and everyone looked after each other......... Now all they want is extortionate rents and don’t give a dam. |

| Despite their hypocritical cant about "individual effort" and "the enterprise economy",the Tories are totally wedded to the theory and practise of Monopoly Capitalism. In relation to retail this means the maintenance of high barriers to entry for
new retailers. |

| The Shopping centre is in reality is a covered Market. Cheap Shops no Quialty no chance of any big names trading on there. The great days we're 30 40 years ago it was a lovely place now its so depressing, Shoplifters the smell of Drugs alcoholics birds flying about inside and the block of flats in the midfle what an eyesore. Hankey Park looked better with the Slums. |

| There is no point anymore,what ever you can get on a market can be bought online yes it was good in its day but why would you go out and get wet and cold when a few clicks and your stuff is delivered to your door even fresh fruit....unless they bring back the broken biscuit stall |

| Great news if the market is reinstated! "Every City should have a market" a social hub and variety of stalls providing affordable items. when the market closed down many shops lost passing trade and inevitably closed down. lets hope we can have one once again. |

| I think Salford precinct is OK. Could do with more clothes shops. A primary would be good. A few more nicer cafes. Get rid of all the alcoholics hanging around. If you want to see a depressing shopping centre go to Walkden. |

| Not that exciting and great really though is it ?! Messing with people’s livelihoods, resulting in long term traders being forced to close and not one sh*t is given. This really frustrates me and personally I think it’s disgusting. The management will still be getting paid at the end of the month no matter what ! |

| Once again, does anyone know how much the rent is? I would love to know. At a guess, I would say about 30 quid a day, but its only a wild guess. |

| I don't think a market will help the place needs knocking down. I hardly go on now, it's well past its sell by date and very depressing. We need a New Shopping Centre not an old relic. |

| A question to fair price. How much is the rent for a stall? Anyone know? Just being nosey as usual. Obviously Ben does not remember the old Cross Lane Market, in the days of Barmy Mick etc. must have been 200 stalls. A close second to Bury market in its prime. Come on , lets have all the old nostalga stories. |

| we are losing the food hall the traders are being located to premises on precinct with no compensation to re furbish, they would have to foot the bill costing thousands, resulting in most of them giving up their business, shopping has changed in todays multi cultural cities, so it will be interesting to see, I miss the old market also, but with rents so high I think the traders will struggle |

| I this salford shopping Center is absolutely a disaster.
The security people don’t do their job properly and there is too many little robberies witch nobody allow to tuch them or arrest them. So they come and steal from you and see you next time.
They have a new manager his name is nick and his absolute arranging person who charge a lot of money for the stalls and one of my friend after spending nearly 15,000 for his stall he kiks him out. PEOPLE BE AWARE OF GOING THERE AS THEY CAN KIK YOU OUT WITHOUT EXPLENATION IT |

| It's the same elsewhere.
Pendlebury used to have a great market. Now gone, replaced by Netto and now Asda.
Swinton had one which moved to the square in the precinct. It's all disappeared now.
Perhaps they didn't suit the modern image! |

| First Pendlebury market went then Salford Market then the little Swinton Market on the precinct now you've realised that the shoppers aren't coming and the precinct is slowly dying and guess what? We know let's open a new market!
I hope it will work and not be a white elephant.

| Problem is that landlord of Salford precinct charge extortionate rate for rent not allowing small business to reach full potential and causing the business to close down or massively struggle to stay afloat. |
