Nuneaton's population was recorded at 88,813 in the 2021 census, the largest town in the Nuneaton and Bedworth borough.
800 years of Nuneaton's charter market
Nuneaton's market traces back to a charter granted by Henry II around 1160, reconfirmed in 1226 when Henry III gave the town formal market rights — a milestone the town celebrated with a mega market event on 13 June 2026 marking 800 years of charter market status. Today's market still runs every Wednesday and Saturday with over 80 stalls, and in 2009 it was crowned Britain's best street market by the National Association of British Market Authorities.
Sweets have come and gone with the shops around it — Jessica's, a sweet shop that once traded at the Ropewalk shopping centre, has since been replaced by a jewellery chain — but nothing selling sweets in Nuneaton has matched the market's staying power, and none of it was ever built around bulk.
What eight centuries of market stalls never stocked
Bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges, halal-friendly selections, full trade cases for a business or event — a market stall, however long-running, is set up for a bag sold in person, not an order at scale.
Why Nuneaton shoppers order online anyway
For anything beyond a market-day bag, ordering online and having it delivered is the more consistent option — available any day of the week, not just market days.
