Markets OPEN, also on public holidays !

We would like to inform everyone that our markets are OPEN this weekend as usual, also on Saturday the 15th of August ! Preferably do your shopping on Friday or Saturday. After all, Sunday is much busier and we cannot avoid queues. The markets are open from 7 am to 2 pm. Once we close the doors of the market, access is no longer possible. This is to make the closing and cleaning of the market as smooth and safe as possible. And, uh... don't forget your mouth mask!
SUGGESTION OF THE WEEK: fresh salmon on the barbecue (available at our fish shops in the FOODMET).
