The Teenage Market is a nationwide initiative which was originally set up by teenage brothers Joe and Tom Barratt in their hometown of Stockport to bring more young people to their town’s local market. The events are now delivered across the whole of the UK, supported by the government’s High Streets Task Force, and are helping to transform town and city centres with the creativity of young people.

Supporters of The Teenage Market include businessman Theo Paphitis, designer Wayne Hemingway and retail guru Mary Portas, who described the initiative as being “unique, innovative and inspiring”.
