The Christchurch St John! ’Ambulance Association will! I get about $l6O from the; International Market which [ [opened in Christchurch on I [Saturday. [ The Christchurch manager,! [Mr M. Wilby. said yesterday! ihere had been a good re-! [ sponse from the public, but: so far a disappointing re-; [ sponse from prospective ’ i stall owners. The site of the market in i (Tuarn Street, next to Mill-! [er’s, has a capacity for 45! [stalls, but so far only about[ nine vendors have leased* [space. A similar market in[Auckland attracted 69 stalls' lon the opening day and after
! two weeks had a waiting list }of 82, he said. International Markets [(Chch), Ltd. has leased the [building and sub-leases to [stall owners, who must lease a stall for a minimum of two weeks for at least $25 a [week, depending on site and [size. Space has been set (aside for a permanent coffee [and snack bar. The Canterbury Shop [Assistants’ Union has objectled to the market’s opening - on Saturdays and a fixture : [ has been set down for toll morrow in the Supreme [Court to hear an application >[by the union for an in- ■ junction.
