		I welcome Nicholas Saphir's report on London wholesale markets and strongly endorse the central recommendation that there should be a central London market for meat, fish, fruit and vegetables -and, of course, flowers - based here at the Nine Elms site of New Covent Garden Market.
		However, there is also a growing market for the provision and distribution of produce for the catering trade - both private sector (hotels, restaurants) and public sector (schools, hospitals).
		It is a historic opportunity to enable London's wholesale markets to survive and prosper in the 21st century and beyond.
