Each week for more than 130 years, meat, fowl, vegetables, fruits, dairy products, herbs, roots, fish, cheese and flowers have flowed into Kitchener's Market building in anticipation of the thrifty and gourmet alike. Market vendors delight in offering unsurpassed variety, quality and freshness to their many customers, some who are fourth- and fifth-generation market shoppers. And shoppers delight in the anticipation of the treats to come.
Today's Kitchener market is an urban market that is both modern and inviting, with 50-foot transparent ceilings and walls of windows flooding the market space with natural light. All of the sights, sounds and smells patrons have come to know and love about the market come alive in this expansive space. Visitors can visit both the Market Shops and the ethnically-diverse restaurant vendors — open five days each week — as well as sample the fare of the farmers' market vendors.
True to its history, the Market is an important community gathering place. It's a multicultural crossroads, embodying the spirit of the community. It's a source of pride for Kitchener residents. It's a source of premium produce and unique fare for shoppers. It's a prime destination for tourists.
Join us at the Kitchener Market. Catch the spirit. Be part of the tradition.
