Berlin Markets

Markethalle Neun

Located in Kreuzberg, Markthalle Neun has set itself the goal of showing how eating differently & shopping differently can be possible in the city: by treating people, animals and the environment with respect, regionally and seasonally -emphasized, connected with local added value, transparent and trusting.

In addition to the production and sale of food, the market hall offers space for initiatives from the local community and is a platform for projects that deal critically with the topics of nutrition, the city, agriculture, biodiversity and the environment. Last but not least, Markthalle Neun wants to give impetus to the “how” of the city’s food supply and the socially necessary debate about a sustainable and globally just food system.
