Merton’s Hospitality Parklets

As we all know the hospitality sector was the hardest hit by Covid 19, with many establishments closed and even when they were allowed to open they were subject to strict social distancing rules.

Therefore, in order to help the local high street recover we were instructed to design, build and roll out a series of Hospitality Parklets.

They needed to provide a safe, secure outdoor seating area for the businesses to place their own tables and chairs. The Parklets needed to be surrounded on all 3 sides by steel powdercoated planters and toughened glass sections to provide some wind protection to the customers.

In total 8 Parklets were rolled out across the borough, the feedback from the business adjacent to the Parklets have been amazingly positive with reports of significant boost to their trading.

We have already been asked by the businesses to retro fit retractable canopies.
