Gap Finders: Nick Johnson and Jenny Thompson
This week's Gap Finders interview is with Nick Johnson and Jenny Thompson, the founders of an award-winning food market that helped transform a town in North West England.
In 2010, the Greater Manchester suburb of Altrincham was the UK's empty shops capital. A decade later, the Sunday Times named it the best place to live in the UK. Much of the credit for its transformation is given to a regenerated food market. Nick Johnson and Jenny Thompson, the couple behind the award-winning project, have since opened two more markets in other parts of North West England. They talk us through the ups and downs of the development - can their model help transform high streets in the rest of the country?
