Jeremy Clarkson's Farm-Fest Sees some Traders Leave Early
Multiple traders have departed Jeremy Clarkson's Great British Farm-Fest early, citing poor sales and financial losses during the bank holiday event at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire.
Korrine Pallas, who owns pet product firm Phoenix Equestrian and Pet Supplies, announced she was departing a day early, describing trading as 'horrific' and 'catastrophic' for her small family business.
Pet brand co-founder Emma labeled the event 'what a shambles,' claiming that '90 per cent of traders' across the showground have either made a loss or failed to cover costs.
A spokesperson for the Great British Farm-Fest responded that they were 'surprised that a handful of exhibitors, out of the 400 who attended, left' an event that has attracted over 50,000 visitors.
Spanning 300 acres and 12 arenas, the festival features farming displays and live music from acts like Blur and Sophie Ellis-Bextor to celebrate Britain's farmers.
