The concept of farmers and produce markets has expanded rapidly in the last few years. Such markets present useful opportunities for producers to increase sales, add value to own produce and gain closer links with the customer. These popular markets can have positive spin off for local traders and businesses and attract increased numbers of customers to local market towns.
Banff was the first market established in Aberdeenshire, followed by Banchory and Peterhead. Recent expansion of the circuit now includes markets in both Inverurie and Fraserburgh. A street traders market also operates on a weekly basis in Ellon. Some of Aberdeenshire's producers also attend markets held in Aberdeen and Elgin.
