Shetland Market Wins Award!
We're thrilled to announce that last week Shetland Market won a £1000 Shell LiveWire Grand Ideas Award! The award was given to Shetland Market as it was judged to be a new and exciting venture. The awards are for young entrpreneurs who have "grand ideas" for a business but need some financial support to help them get going.
We will be spending the £1000 on advertising, media, website upgrades and to cover the site running costs while the site is in its infancy.

The first advertising!
We're pleased to say the first advert for Shetland Market is in the Shetland Times this week! Its a small step, but combined with plenty of web links and networking I hope to really increase awareness of the website throughout Shetland.

Site Updates
Well the sites ben online a while now and I'm pleased to say that its all been working brilliantly and we've been encouraged by several providers signing up to list their products.
We're still looking for more providers to list on the site though, and will be making the site easier to use, and quicker to set up for providers with a set of new features. Watch this space!

Shetland Market is Live!
Well, the code crunching is finally over for now and the website is now live! We are now looking for local businesses to join the site and begin listing their products.
Feel free to have a browse around our site, and although there are limited products on the site at the moment, it should give you a taster of what the site is about, and hopefully soon we will have a comprehensive catalogue online!
