Connect to a LOCAL MARKET Community

Growing links between markets, traders and customers

Welcome to the Community đź‘‹

Marketplaces was founded in 2024 with a simple vision: to breathe new life into our local communities and support the small businesses that make our high streets worth visiting.

What started with just one market location has quickly grown into a network of four community markets across Nottinghamshire. Each one is thoughtfully curated and designed to celebrate independent traders, handmade products, and local food—bringing people together in vibrant, welcoming spaces.

We’re a family-run business, and at the heart of everything we do are our traders and the communities we serve. Whether you’re a passionate maker, a local food producer, or simply someone who loves to shop small and support local—we’ve created these markets for you.

Our mission is clear:

✨ To help high streets thrive

✨ To create meaningful opportunities for small businesses

✨ To build markets that feel like the heart of the community

Thank you for being part of the journey.
