Young entrepreneurs make headlines for Emery Gate!

Featured online at The Business Desk, the owners of Liquidz Vapes and Trapped Barbers have been celebrated as our two new independent stores opened in the shopping centre.

Both are looking to expand their businesses and Emery Gate is proud to home these young business owners as they start their journeys to success.

“Our priority was to find an indoor location with good footfall that would help enhance brand awareness,” said Noah McKenna, the 19-year-old owner of Liquidz.com.

“The response so far has been fantastic and we aim to keep the shop fresh, changing products to fit customer demand. We’re looking forward to building our brand this year with our store at Emery Gate being the main launchpad for our products.”

Liam Ruck, the 20-year-old owner of Trapped Barbershop said, “Once I get Trapped up and running I’m hoping to open other branches. As well as my customers, I do quite a bit of charity work with rough sleepers and offer free haircuts and someone to talk to. If things continue to go this well, I’ll be looking to hire another barber soon.”
