Personal information

Criteria

To book a place in the DEFA Manx Produce Marquee, you will need to meet the following criteria:

• All produce sold must be grown, reared, caught, brewed, pickled, baked or smoked on Island or, where processed, this must contain local produce. Local means produce from the Isle of Man.
   
• All stallholders must comply with current Trading Standards and Environmental Health requirements. All stallholders selling food/drink should be registered with Environmental Health and provide their registration number. Stallholders must provide relevent allergy information. Sales of alcohol are not possible as the marquee will not be licensed.
   
• All stallholders should identify any hazards that their stall could present to people at the show and take steps to remove or reduce the risk that these might cause damage, injury or illness.
   
• All exhibitors must agree to share their performance data with DEFA following the event.

Show Committee Requirements

Please note that the rules of the Royal Manx Agricultural Show are set by their Show Committee and not by DEFA.  Anyone wishing to submit a bid for a catering contract or who wish to purchase a trade stand should respond directly to the Show Secretary. All enquiries as to application dates and forms should also be directed to the Show Secretary.

This application form is for an area within the Manx Produce marquee only. Please be aware that restrictions apply to the sales of sandwiches and similar products for which there are approved suppliers, appointed by the Show Committee.  However, cakes or pies can be sold provided that they are large or sold in containers and drinks can be sold in bottles: in other words, produce presented for consumption away from the Show is acceptable as it is not deemed to be in competition with the approved catering contractors. 

If you are unsure as to whether your goods or services might contravene Show Committee rules, please discuss this with Hayden Armour, details as above, in the first instance.
