Choose a Name For Our Shop
+++ Poll Now Closed +++ Poll Now Closed +++ Poll Now Closed +++
As we enter the final phase of work prior to opening for business, we want all of our supporters and shareholders to have your say in what the shop will be called. We've agonised over this for long enough. Now its up to you.
We have three shortlisted options, in no particular order:
- The Green Grocer: This option offers a simple, clear and straightforward approach. We are a greengrocer, we are a grocer, and we seek to be a green business. We like the subtle play on words.
- Community Pod: A number of variations have been proposed on this theme, including simply "Pod", and Slaithwaite Pod. Derives from the idea of a seed pod and all that this inspires, and offers opportunities for visual interpretation.
- Green Valley Grocer: This option hints at our aims about promoting local food and encouraging the Colne Valley to be a much greener place with lots more of us getting involved in growing food. This one really rolls off the tongue.
While you are considering which of these works best for you, please bear in mind that the business also has a name: Slaithwaite Cooperative Limited, and this could be included in the visual identity, adding a further dimension. Also we could choose to include some sort of 'strapline' that might clarify or add a twist in some way.
So, please give it some thought and let us know your preferred option. This poll will remain open for just a few days, so please act quickly to ensure that your vote counts.

Shop name
Also like Slaithwaite Pod but not Community Pod. To which community is it referring? Term is used too much these days, especially in public services to mean lots of different things. Sounds pretentious.
