This coming sunday on the 23rd of January 2011will see the launch of Market On Main, which will be situated on Arts On Main. This will become a metropolis of culinary experts, ambitious food entrepreneurs and food lovers while promoting regional economic development. We support small businesses dedicated to creating local food systems and to reviving the thriving, equitable culture of the urban public marketplace.
Beyond the outstanding cuisine, the people and the place are key to the success. Market On Main will incubate a new and growing business sector: purveyors who source food directly from farmers and producers whom they trust to be good stewards of our land. As a result, the market will become a hub of knowledge and understanding. A place to explore, to ask questions, to discover new flavours and to savour a unique atmosphere.
Stallholders offer fine-food, design products, local farmers, seasonal items, gourmet goods, plants and herbs, fresh produce, cut flowers, organic producers and independent beers.
Here you can expect stalls from:
- As Greek As It Gets
- Avant Gardener
- Bakerella by The Cupcake Factory
- Be Kind
- Canteen Cocktails
- Ceramics Collective
- Eat Your Heart Out
- Fine and Raw Chocolate
- Firefly

Market On Main will concern itself with being organic, green and sustainable, and to showcase the best that Gauteng and it’s surrounding areas have to offer.
