Shop front licences
You need to apply for a licence to sell goods on a public pathway in front of a shop or business.
The licence fee is calculated by the area you would be permitted to trade from by the square metre price for your location.
| Banding | Per month, per square metre |
|---|---|
| Street banding A | £15 |
| Street banding B | £10 |
| Street banding C | £5 |

The goods on display/on sale should generally be a product related to what is being sold inside the shop, for example a grocery shop may only display fruit and vegetables outside. Any other products may be considered on application.
Once you have applied, we need to do a site visit to estimate the monthly fees and to agree on the display dimensions before a licence can be issued. Please use the link below to complete the online application and payment form. The fee is £100 for new applications and £50 for renewals.
