Good Market
Overview
The Good Market is a unique market place in Colombo focusing mainly on quality local and organic produce as well as a range of other local products. With the catchy theme of “good for the planet, good for the country, and good for you” the market beckons the health and eco-conscious along with the socially responsible.
Good market takes place weekly in two locations in Colombo while they also have a permanent shop at the grounds of Lakpahana, a traditional handicraft store located on Reid Avenue in Colombo.
The weekly market places are held every Thursday from 10.00 am to 6.00 pm at Diyatha Uyana an open space in Battaramulla in the outskirts of Colombo and also on Saturdays at the Colombo Race Course grounds. The market features a large number of stalls selling organic produce, traditional ayurvedic products, garden supplies, non-toxic house wares, books and fair trade handicrafts.
The local produce at the Good market goes through heavy screening to ensure the all produce on sale is in fact organic. Likewise the social enterprise also gives prominence to fair trade and features a wide range of traditional craft products by local artisans.
