Cllr Phil King, Leader of Harborough District Council said: “We are delighted to bring the first ever vegan market to the district which I know will be popular with many residents. I’m sure it will bring lots of people into the town which is great for the market, and local shops.”

Lewis Beresford, Vegan Market Co’s Founder says; “We are so excited to be in Market Harborough for the first time. We work hard to find the country’s leading vegan producers, from street food vendors and bakers to ethical clothing and cosmetic producers. We also work with many local businesses and can’t wait to give all of these fantastic producers the platform they deserve.”
