Things to consider when planning your Farm Shop:
Location and access
Where on the farm will the shop be located and how will vehicles and pedestrians access it
Future expansion
If everything goes well and you want to expand your shop is this possible?
Utilities
Have you got suitable water and power on site? If not, can you get it easily?
Energy efficiency
With power costs escalating make sure you get the most energy efficient cladding
Building control
A farm shop isn’t a “farm” building and is a retail premises so you’ll need building regs for your project.
What finish do you want on your building?
Do you want to look like a traditional farm shop, very rustic and natural, or are you wanting to look more modern and contemporary? We can show you a vast range of materials and finishes for your farm shop.
Signage
Signage for your farm shop is an important part of your marketing and we can help in the construction of site signage as well as taking in to account what signage may be needed on the building itself. If needed we can even help with the graphic design.
