He added: “We will be operating in a Covid secure way, providing additional hand sanitiser for both customers and traders.”
It is a year since Geraud (UK) was appointed to take over the running of the markets by Northumberland Estates.
It finally held its first market last June after the first lockdown and enjoyed a good summer season with up to 35 stallholders.
