CLOVERDALE FLEA MARKET LIVES ON

Under New Management

Contrary to posted signs and paid newspaper ads, the Cloverdale Flea Market is not “closing forever”, but under new management beginning December 4th. Incoming manager, Andy Janes, says it’s “business as usual” at the market and invites customers to come in on December 4th, say hello and check out the enormous variety of bargains available at the market. This is the place to come for Christmas shopping; you will find everything here; new and used items, crafts, toys, clothing, jewellery, hand made goods, household goods, and untold treasures for sale.

The Cloverdale Flea Market has been in existence for over 34 years and is a favourite among bargain shoppers. Many vendors have been selling at the market since its inception and there is a warm sense of community when you enter the grounds and buildings. Customers will find a large outdoor area where vendors sell everything under the sun (and rain) under the cover of canopies. Fresh flowers and produce are available here at bargain basement prices. Enter the two large, heated Alice McKay and Shannon Hall buildings and you will find them stuffed with tables and the steady hum of activity.

The market will undergo a series of improvements, says Andy Janes, beginning with a website where vendors can register and customers can find maps, directions and details about the market. “The plan is to keep things running smoothly, gradually adding attractions and services to enhance the market experience for customers. I want this to be a family destination on Sundays, a place to take the kids and spend a few hours and a few bucks.”

The Cloverdale Market is open 6:00 AM – 4:00 PM every Sunday with very few exceptions. It is located in the Cloverdale Fairgrounds with entrances at 176th & 62nd Ave. and 176th and 60th Ave., Surrey. Admission is $1.50, children under 12 are free.
