The future of London’s iconic Billingsgate fish market looks more secure with the identification of a preferred new site in the Royal Docks in Newham
Billingsgate is set to join Smithfield Market at Albert Island, enabling these historic markets to continue while allowing expansion and modernisation within the M25.
Officials estimate the move could generate £750 million in local expenditure, over 2,200 jobs and £130 million in GVA for Newham.
