The historic Petersfield building where small business grows

The Folly Market has been trading in the centre of Petersfield since the late 1970s. Today's it's proving to be an effective incubator of new local businesses.

Jake Benstead from the Folly Wine Bar manages the units in which many start-ups entrepreneurs are finding success.

He explains how, right now, three units are becoming available at the same time as businesses outgrow them and move up and on.

Abi Isaiah from Lollipop Lane Vintage Sweets is one such business. Abi describes why her business has been so successful in the Folly Market and why it's time for her to take the plunge and go for growth.

They are speaking to Shine Radio's Stephen Martin.
