What is the deal with traditional markets in London?
Fact -
Traditional markets are the oldest form of exchange – and are not just a key
part of the British heritage. Successful markets deliver many diverse benefits
to local towns and communities and while economic benefits are perhaps the most
obvious, the social value of markets and the community cohesion they encourage
are equally important. Markets can also help regenerate town centres, promote
healthy eating and support 'greener' lifestyles and more sustainable patterns
of commerce.
