Description

The City of London Corporation owns and manages London’s three principal wholesale food markets. Our aim is to co-locate all three markets on a new site to create a significant new food wholesale location for London. Our wholesale food markets are: • Billingsgate, the UK’s largest inland fish market • New Spitalfields, Britain’s premier wholesale fruit, vegetable and flower market • Smithfield, the world- famous meat and poultry market The City Corporation has a long and proud history of owning and managing these markets, dating back to medieval times. For a long time located in the City, today New Spitalfields is based in Leyton and Billingsgate is located next to Canary Wharf with Smithfield the only one still located in the Square Mile.
