Bury is the country’s Best Market Attraction!

The famous Bury Market has won another national award – the Best Market Attraction in the land.

The news was announced in January by industry body NABMA, at their Great British Market Awards ceremony in Birmingham.

Councillor Charlotte Morris, cabinet member for culture and the economy, said:

“This is another fantastic award for our beloved Bury Market, and shows how highly it is valued by people across the land. As the judges have said, our plans for the future are exciting, and will keep Bury Market on people’s ‘must visit’ list for many years to come.”

The judges said:

“This market is described as one of the best markets in the North West and a destination that attracts customers and visitors from far and wide. It is multiple award winning and is regarded as a ‘regional treasure’. “It has charisma and atmosphere and the layout offers visitors the opportunity to easily seek out and visit stalls within a very large traditional market in a modern setting.”

“Management is visionary and innovative, constantly seeking improvements and always responding to the national and local threats it faces. The future is exciting as its council operator has been successful in securing £20 million from the Government’s Levelling Up Fund to support market improvements with enhanced public realm changes to improve linkages with the town centre.

“This market has a vital role within the local economy, providing jobs to hundreds of individuals, bringing in large amounts of money to the town, and supporting a loyal customer base – with the market being particularly well-used by people living in deprived neighbourhoods, and elderly pensioners living alone.”

“The judging panel was unanimous that the Best Market Attraction for 2023 is Bury Market.”
