I might have an opportunity to run a fruit stall, but I do need to act fast on it. I wouldn't actually work it myself but rather look at it as a little side business.

I've no idea about the nuances of running a stall, but I like the idea and as the funds required are not all too high I'm going to treat it as a hobby project/gamble for a few weeks and see if I can pull it off.

The main problem would be getting the produce in the morning as I don't want to have to get a van etc. So I was wondering what deal is with delivery services. I presume someone must deliver to the restaurants in the morning.

Anyone got any pointers or advice?

Some market stalls (Western Int, New Covent Garden) have their own delivery vehicles.
Maybe have a chat with them?

I can ask the fresh buyer for contact details if it is of any help?

I'll look into those names mentioned.

And LilCat, that'd be great if it's not too much hassle thanks.
