Brixton’s indoor markets will be open on Bank Holiday Monday (7 May) in a move that has been welcomed by traders.
New owners Hondo said: “We’ve been listening to traders and market visitors who have said they’d love to see Brixton Market open on Bank Holidays. So this coming Bank Holiday Monday we’ll be throwing open the doors and lifting the shutters.
“This is an early result of our commitment to listen to traders and we look forward to announcing more enhancements in the next few weeks.”
One trader told the Blog: “Under the old ownership the market was never open on Bank Holidays, but the new owners seem committed to listening to traders and opening.”
Hondo Enterprises bought both the freehold and leasehold of Brixton Village and Market Row earlier this year for £37.25 million.
