Pop-Up Shops
The ubiquitous shipping container has been used world-wide to provide permanent and semi-permanent accommodation. They can be creatively adapted to provide elaborate stylish homes – or simple stores, workshops and particularly, fashionable retail units. Due to their availability, they are very inexpensive. They are also quick to site and install for whichever purpose they are used. Collectively, these valuable features make them an ideal solution to meet the need for low-cost retail start-ups.
Shipping containers are easily converted into innovative, environmentally-friendly, retail spaces. For this, CONNECT is partnering with a specialist building company with expertise in designing bespoke units suited to retailers' needs. A single base unit provides an enclosed internal floor area of 13 sqm, with larger units available. Used like Lego bricks, their modular nature means the retail space is only limited by the ground area available.
A version of the project pictured - which can be replicated in nearly every community – can provide a raft of benefits. Not least to the business owner or operator – but particularly for the local community.
