The Joburg Market is first and foremost a commission market – farmers deliver their produce to market agents who then sell it to buyers. The market makes a five percent non-negotiable commission on the sale of all fresh produce, while market agents earn a negotiable 7,5 percent commission on sales. Single units of fruit and vegetables – for example a box of tomatoes – can be bought, while even smaller quantities of fruit and vegetables are available from the Mandela Market, Unity Market and Hall 9. The market is in City Deep, off Heidelberg Road, just south of the M2 freeway.
