Nabma has announced that Antony Worrall Thompson TV celebrity has agreed to front Market of the Year 2008.

In agreeing to his endorsement and support of the Market of the Year competition Antony Worrall Thompson admitted that he was a strong supporter of markets. ?I believe that markets are a vitally important component within the food chain. They provide fresh produce, an outlet for locally sourced food and I am proud to have been a long standing supporter and regular user. I would urge everyone, both producer and consumer, to support their local market and I look forward to working with NABMA and being involved in Market of the Year 2008. Markets are important community assets and I am excited at helping raise their profile and stressing the importance of markets across the U.K?
