Hello everyone


Please complete the survey

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WX5TH35


I?m hoping to find out if a new business offering Scandinavian design products for babies and toddlers in Crystal Palace might be a success. You do not have to live in Crystal Palace to answer.


The idea is to supply lovely colourful Scandinavian brands of clothing and toys. Scandinavian design is very popular the world over and offers an alternative to pink and blue kids clothes.


It's a new idea so we've designed a short - only 10 questions - survey to help us get an idea of whether the business might work or not.


We would greatly appreciate your help and all information entered is anonymous and your details won?t be shared with anyone.


Many thanks for your time!


Annette

Not meaning to be rude, but how is it a new idea?


Have seen a great kids' clothing shop selling Danish and other Skandi designs disappear from East Dulwich Road for want of custom (much to my chagrin, it was a great place to get gifts for the nieces et al). Actually, am I going mad, is there a place on Melbourne Grove?


Are you going to be selling anything unique to you? New designers?


I like Scandinavian design, but wouldn't travel to Crystal Palace for it - if you have a unique offering though, I'd certainly check you out online.

I do love nice kids clothes


But i'd be wary of any venture in the CP area. We hardly ever shop there now, as the parking and traffic are so bad. We and many parents I know avoid the place. It also doesn't feel that child friendly


And the thing about shops is; location, location, location


Do you have extensive retail experience ?


Good luck though in whatever you do

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
