Young Trader of the Year

The young trader market is also a chance for you to practice for and take part in the National Market Traders Federation’s annual national Young Trader of the Year competition.

Running for ten years, the programme starts with local young trader markets across the UK. It then goes to the regional finals.

At each stage the highest-scoring traders are put through and the programme culminates at the national final. One trader will be awarded the title of National Young Trader of the Year.
