Caerphilly council has appointed Town Square Spaces and Crafty Legs to run Ffos Caerffili, which opened last year.

They will take on an overriding lease and manage the scheme, working with and supporting the market's existing traders.

Work space specialists Town Square and event organisers Crafty Legs were chosen as the preferred bidder after being invited to submit a business case to the local authority.

The process of handing over the management of the site from the existing operator Brigadoon Ffos will begin in the coming weeks. There will be no change to Ffos Caerffili’s opening times for traders, guests and shoppers during this process.
