***BUT NOW THE LIVE MARKETS HAVE RETURNED***
Now Nicola approved markets reopening, we opened at Leith on 4th July and Stockbridge on the 5th. The virtual markets will continue so you can choose to shop online or outdoors with us. The virtual collection points will move out of the markets but will be very close by.
While we are thrilled that we are open again, our markets are very different from what we were used to. In our first phase of reopening we have only 16 traders in Leith and 19 in Stockbridge. Our opening hours at both markets are 10am to 4pm. All traders are at least 2 metres distant from each other. We have no hot food ( although your favorite traders are here but are selling their food prepacked cold for you to reheat at home). We have no craft stalls to begin with as there can be no touching of goods but they are all keen to get back as soon as its safe to do so. It is very much a shopping for food market with bread, meat, fish, veg, fruit , cheese, charcuterie, home bakes, teas, olives, salads, jams, ready meals and more treats.
Sorry - for now there are no coffees and no tables and chairs to sit and chat.
There is one entrance to the market and one exit with a marked route round the market. We have marked spots for each stall to have 2 or 3 people queuing and we have staff at the entrance and exit to explain the procedure, and if necessary limit the number of customers in the market at at any one time, e.g. for Leith the max number of customers allowed according to distancing rules is 55. There is hand sanitizer at the entrance and on each stall. Our staff wear masks. We will be urging the public to help us by maintaining distance from each other. Of course we have the advantage of being outdoors and you bring your own shopping bags, no trolleys:-)
Its very much a first step, but without a first step you can't start on the road to recovery. We hope the public will understand this and help us through this.
