Another nail in the High Street's coffin? Model Zone

PictureModel Zone Basingstoke has gone in administration
Today I noticed Model Zone in Basingstoke was having a sale, being the geek I am I called in and found out that they had gone into Administration and were selling everything off!

Is this another nail in the high street's coffin?  The high street is already littered with empty shops, however it always seems busy.  There are always people their.  So why are businesses failing and shops being left open if the people are still walking past the doors?

There are so many questions surrounding the future of the high street and whether or not it will survive.  I thought I would ask you want you think about the future of the high street and give you some thoughts about setting up a shop

We would love to know your thoughts on the future of the high street

  1. Why should customers buy things in a shop when it is generally cheaper online?
  2. What makes you want to buy something in store?
  3. What would make you visit the high streets or shopping centers more often?

Is now the time to set up shop?

With so much change on the high street and so many shops laying empty, now might just be the time for you to take the retail world by storm!  Come up with your idea and there are opportunities abound to get retail space for free.

What type of shop or service would you open up?
