A PRAM seller has set up his own global sales drive -- from a stall on Accrington market.

Neville Singer has run the indoor stall for 40 years and now has customers all over the world after setting up the Pramsonline.com web site.

He branched out into internet sales two years ago with an initial sale to Brunei and has now received financial support from Government funding to target the American market.

The 56-year-old said: "The internet is obviously international but I was still extremely surprised when I started getting inquiries from America.

"Customers there say they can't get the same quality and designs in America as you can in Europe and they are prepared to pay the money to get what they want.

"I went over to Dallas earlier in the year to a trade show there and it is true what the customers say."

Neville has now sold in excess of 50 prams, pushchairs and buggies to the USA and has already received 21 e-mail requests about his stock this month.

He has recently teamed up with a supplier with a base in America to help deliver to this growing market.

The father-of-two, who lives with his wife Peta in Bury, said: "Using the internet was going to be an extra for the business but it is turning into the main thing.

"People are too busy now and cannot get out to look around before they buy something, especially new parents, so it is much easier for them to buy on the internet.

"And no matter how big or small a business is they are all the same on the internet so if you do a good product at a good price you can do it."

He gets supplies from most of the major manufacturers from throughout the UK and the variety of baby transporters can cost anywhere from £50 to £500.

And he is now stocking a new design which allows parents to turn easily around corners because the wheels are not fixed, as with regular prams.

The market stall and internet service also supply nursery furniture, baby clothing, cots, car seats and other accessories but prams are the biggest selling item with eight being ordered each week through the internet.

Neville said delivery from Accrington to the States was usually around five days but he recently rolled one out of the stall on a Friday afternoon and was told it arrived on Monday morning.

Despite the business taking off, Neville says he will not leave the Accrington stall because it is homely, central and where it all began..
