Old Spitalfields Market Event: The Highlights

Secondary school students taking part in our Company Programme in London, set up pop-up stalls and sold their products at the historic Old Spitalfields Market.

The event, sponsored by Delta Air Lines, saw young entrepreneurs selling innovative and environmentally friendly products, including: up-cycled and re-purposed denim, well being hampers, food waste reduction solutions and a time management app.

Students across London have made all the decisions about their business, from deciding the company name and product, to creating a business plan, managing their finances and selling their products.

“I’m always impressed by the innovative thinking of the students who present their businesses at this event. As a company that puts innovation and technology at the forefront of air travel, these companies all have something in common with Delta and I’m sure these students will go on to have successful careers.”

– Graham Farhall, Regional Director Finance at Delta and Young Enterprise Board Member
