PAY AND DISPLAY: My Beautiful Laundrette: 18 month campaign begins to support local business
The implementation of Pay and Display in Pevensey Bay will see a radical transformation of the shopping parade in the Eastbourne Road.
The perceived threat to local business is significant and palpable.
Peter Stacey, who runs the successful Pevensey Pete’s Laundrette in the heart of the Bay sees a potential threat to the future of his business.
Talking to Bay LIfe (13 October) he said “I’m concerned as a business owner it will affect me hugely
“my customers will not tolerate paying to park to come in to do there Laundry they will migrate elsewhere I know this to be the case as I’ve asked them outright and I’d say 40% won’t want to pay
“This is of great concern to me as a local community business”.
As well as being a service that is enjoyed and supported by the community the laundrette is at the heart and hub of the Bay, both as a busy economic service of merit and activity as a social hub.
Bay Life is to begin an eighteen month campaign with regard to implementation of Pay and Display with a view to seeing that arrangements take full cogniscence of what is being said by local business as a community of interest
Simon Montgomery editor of Bay Life this morning (16 October), “we see our campaign over the next eighteen months as being a way in which we can see that the voice of local business is heard.
“The radical change has the potential to transform the lives of businesses here and residents.
:”Whilst our campaign poster, which will appear in A1 format in businesses in the Bay, is something of a spoof on a famous film, nonetheless the message is a very serious one indeed.
The work being done by Peter Stacey is not just his beautiful laundrette it is our beautiful laundrette and what we hope the campaign poster will do is get the message across from local businesses that their voices must be heard.
The posters are to be produced in the new business business quarter in Pevensey Bay by AD Signs, the first company to move into a new studio and office space in the new business location in the Bay. The posters will be available from Monday 30 October for display.
Simon said, “choosing Pevensey Pete’s Laundrette to front the campaign was an obvious decision, many people here know that he is a successful film extra as well and that his face has appeared in many films, and it would not surprise me to hear that he was actually in the film as a extra in My Beautiful Laundrette.
“We would particularly like to thank local business, Ad Signs in the new business quarter, here in Pevensey Bay for their work with this poster and the speed with which they have given us the opportunity to produce this poster”.
The campaign posters will appear in shops and services in the community from the end of October, with a series of review messages on the poster comprised of comments made by local businesses.
Further information about how to buy the A1 poster, priced £3:50, for your shop or service is available from AD Signs.
