In this podcast we talk to Donald Hyslop, the chair of trustees at Borough Market, London’s oldest food market. The Market’s charitable trust is responsible for shaping its strategic direction and ensuring its survival as a community asset. Donald became a member of the board in 2007, and Chair in 2011.

Queen Victoria Market Precinct Renewal

Donald Hyslop Borough Market

The City of Melbourne is currently leading the $250m renewal of the iconic Queen Victoria Market – the largest infrastructure investment in the City of Melbourne's history. Through the five-year renewal program we want to retain and restore the Queen Victoria Market’s heritage while improving facilities for traders, customers and visitors. Everything we do is about ensuring the market is viable for future generations of small business. We’ve recorded a short series of podcasts to coincide with the World Union of Wholesale Markets Congress, held in Melbourne, Australia in October 2017. As part of this conference, several international market experts visited our city and we took the opportunity to talk to them about their own experiences in market renewal.
