Trading on local markets offers a great way to become part of your local community and get to know the people and businesses that add to an area.
There are two types of traders on local markets, those who only trade occasionally (casual traders) and those with who have a licence to trade regularly (permanent). Permanent traders will normally have the same stall each time they trade.
Leeds Markets run three local markets at
Otley,
Pudsey and
Yeadon. Prices for trading at local markets vary depending on the location, popularity of the market and trading days.
