Proud to Be Part of Duck Pond Market!

As a stallholder with Stuff & Bite, trading at Duck Pond Market has been an amazing experience. The team is supportive, well-organised, and truly cares about small businesses.

We’re proud to bring authentic Thai street food with a unique twist, and the market has given us the perfect platform to grow and connect with great customers.

Highly recommended for any small trader looking for a professional, positive, and inspiring place to trade!

Excellent organisation

Very professionally organised. The staff feel genuinely invested in the experience.
From the online booking process to on-the-day organisation, everything is well coordinated and proactively managed.
This helps create a supportive environment for traders, and a positive trading experience for customers.
Cannot recommend highly enough.

Highly recommended for both stallholders and visitors!

Highly Recommend for Small Businesses

We had such a positive experience trading at Duck Pond Market in Richmond. The team was welcoming and well-organised, with clear communication throughout. The location was fantastic, fellow stallholders were friendly, and there was a great community spirit. Highly recommend to any small business looking for a well-run and supportive market environment.

Everything about this place is simply fantastic. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. The overall vibe is that of a family-friendly market—relaxed, vibrant, and full of positive energy.

Duck Pond Market Straight Up…

Duck Pond Market is straight up your street and the place to have your stall at if, like me, you believe in working with friendly, supportive and inclusive like-minded, sustainable and ethical people. I love the 100% effort Caron and all the team at all the venues put into supporting and promoting all the traders on site and through social media. They create a vibrant atmosphere for all the visitors at every market to enjoy their browsing and purchases. The brainchild of Caron around 15 years ago that has never lost any of it's beliefs and enthusiasm

I started my business with a stall at Duck and Pond, Richmond and couldn’t have asked for a better start! Caron, Mike and all the staff at Duck and Pond are super helpful and supportive. This is also what creates a great vibe at all the Duck and Ponds! If you are thinking of having a stall or visiting, I would highly recommend 👍

Lovely markets

I did my first ever market with Duck Pond Market and I 100% recommend as they were so welcoming. They genuinely want you to do well so give really useful feedback as part of your trial date. I have done lots of markets with them since then and have always found them to be super friendly, professional and the other stall holders have always been lovely.

Don't go to Ruislip without a visit

Don't go to Ruislip without a visit to the Duck Pond Markets (1st and 3rd Sundays of each month). You'll find a huge variety of traders selling handcrafted, sustainable and ethical goods. I first visited as a shopper and loved it so much I now trade there. It's hard to find events where love for the environment is at the core of everything sold.

What a beautiful gem this market is.

What a beautiful gem this market is. Started at Ruislip and now expanded to lots of west London locations, wherever it is it is fabulous. Everyone is so friendly, market managers are super supportive and helpful, traders know and support each other, it just really works and has a wonderful atmosphere. Love the 'Local, ethical and sustainable' ethos, it means you can trust the product. I know I am effusing about it, but having been a stall-holder and now a punter since it's very beginning, I just love it. Gay & markel

Happy place for great, handmade goodies

I have been trading with Duck Pond for almost 10 years. It’s such a lovely friendly environment that it doesn’t feel like work!

I have been at so many other markets where traders are reselling imported goods so cheaply, that it’s great at Duckpond to be amongst carefully selected makers, who are all either making everything themselves, or are ethically importing items.

Everything is so well organised, it’s a dream to sell at markets.

As a customer, I would definitely recommend visiting! You can find so many beautiful items that you won’t find anywhere else!

I enjoy visiting this market some times for foods that are wonderful and sometimes for unique arty things. But i always get a slot with Clive the massage therapist. He is amazing and always gets to the knots. I feel fantastic after each treatment. This man has talent. Truly..treat yourself!

I've taken part in two different craft markets, Ruislip and Richmond, both were extremely well organised by Caron and Kelly.

The atmosphere at both venues was buzzing, two great locations and I'm looking forward to my next venture at Highgate on 11th June.

Highly recommended Duck Pond Market
