A new way to connect with customers, backed by SpaceandPeople
SpaceandPeople and Enterprise Nation have teamed up to bring small and growing businesses new ways to access high-footfall retail spaces across the UK. Whether you’re ready to take your product from online to in-person or looking to build your presence in new regions – pop-up retail offers a flexible, low-risk route to getting there.
As a member of the Enterprise Nation, you now get exclusive access to retail-ready spaces, expert support, and pricing tailored to independent brands. From local brands to e-commerce founders and wholesale specialists – this is retail, on your terms.
Why Pop-up Retail
Pop-up retail allows businesses to trade in high-visibility spaces without the long-term commitments of permanent leasing.
Whether you are launching, trialling or scaling, our flexible solution helps you connect with customers, drive sales and grow sustainably.

Built for Small Business, Your Business
When you’re running a small business, every move you make counts – from where and how you show up to how much you invest. Pop-up retail is designed with agility and impact in mind.
So How Does it Work?
Our Rock Up and Pop Up service is a flexible end-to-end solution for start-ups launching their businesses, seasoned retailers expanding into new markets, or online-only brands stepping into physical retail. Retailers have the opportunity to pick and choose the elements of the service most suitable for them.
With a dedicated account manager, you get expert support every step of the way – so you can focus on the product while we take care of the rest.
Looking to Generate Leads Without Setting Up Shop?

Pop-up retail is not the only way to show up, with us. If you’re a business eager to engage customers, generate leads or sample products- our Customer Acquisition solution may just be the fit for you.
From interactive set-ups to smart brand activations, this model allows you to launch a product, grow your database, drive awareness and gather customer insights by placing you i front of the right audience in the right venues- including prime shopping centres, travel hubs, retail and leisure parks across the UK.
