I wish you all the luck in the world in whatever you decide to do, but I don't think it lies in food on Union Road.

The one thing involving food on Union Road that is missing is a decent fresh fruit & veg shop. At the moment you have to go all the way into Accrington to go to the market. So that might be an idea.
Someone tried a fruit & veg shop near Rogreave Road, and worked really hard offering good quality fare and a friendly service, but couldn't make a decent living at it.
