Dear MM Reading

Thanks for this. 

To be completely honest with you, we as a small and starting business are working at extremely low margins. And £30 pounds stall fee probably dents in any tiny profits we may be making. 

We will have to determine the feasibility and we will get back to you in next few days if we are still interested. 

Regards

Amit and Abha Apte

Welcome to Marathi Mandal Reading's most awaited event of the year.

Many thanks for your interest in holding a stall and we are already looking forward to taste the yummy food made by you all.

Here are some rules and regulations for your reference and acceptance -

1.There are two types of stalls - Commercial and Non-commercial.
Non -commercial stalls are the ones where someone is making the food at home and selling it only on the day of event.

Commercial stalls are those where you sell packaged food or home made food, but give your business cards or any type of advertisement for further contact with you regarding food.

2. The cost of having a commercial stall is £30 and non -commercial stall is £20.Your stall will only be confirmed once the money is transferred to the Mandal's account.

3.MAXIMUM OF 2 ITEMS PER STALL ARE ALLOWED.It is essential that we know the two items you are offering on your stall. If you don't confirm the items while booking the stall, that may be passed to the next interested person. Please make sure that you will only sell the 2 items on the day which you have confirmed. Any last minute changes are not allowed. THIS IS NOT APPLICABLE TO YOUR STALL

4.You will need to arrive 30-40 minutes before the start time to set up your stall.
We will provide you one table and two chairs.

5. Due to health and safety reasons, use of gas /electric cooker is NOT ALLOWED. You can bring your own microwave to reheat the food, in which case, we recommend you to get an extension cord as well.

6.you will serve the food items in appropriate disposable cutlery taking care that the food /drinks will not spill and cause any accidents.

7.You will ensure that the prices for your products are clearly marked. You can keep the prices /deals as you may wish and can make changes in it throughout the event.

8.you will make sure that the food /drink you are offering is served at the right temperature required for that particular item and all the buyers are made aware of any typical ingredient in your item that can cause food allergies e.g. Nuts, seeds etc

9. If required, you may need to share the burden of taking the rubbish back with you for disposing off further.

10.Any cancellation may only be considered if we can get another confirmed stall in your place.

We need you to send us a confirmatory e-mail that you accept these rules ASAP.
Please feel free to contact Snehal Vaishampayan on 07921366903 or Anjali Deshpande on 07809593014 if you have any queries or need any further clarification.

Good morning Snehal,

Shall we send an email to the Aptes saying that their concern is valid and we don't have any problem if they decide not to go ahead with the stall. We can also invite them to come and enjoy the program.

What say??

Regards,

Anjali

Hi In my opinion: Considering Apte's participation in most of the programs, we should reconsider their stall if at all possible. May be to have a quick discussion in tomorrow's call And then reply to their email accordingly? We do not want to miss them forever is the concern I have. One goes take few with them. We will need to maintain balance within the reasons. Regards Sunil

Hi all,

I was thinking on the same lines as Sunil. If Aabha has mentioned about rethinking, lets give her time and in the meanwhile we can decide an answer on Friday on our call as a group. Of course then we can email her accordingly.

Kind regards,

Snehal
