The Moor Market and Crystal Peaks Market Place are proud to sponsor Shop Sheffield and help champion independent traders in the city. 

The Moor Market was described by the Independent newspaper as the Borough Market of the north and a haven for food lovers. 

It is one of the UK's best indoor markets and home to over 90 independent traders, selling everything from fresh and artisan produce, daily essentials, technology, clothes and accessories, gifts and beauty.
