The market of Piraeus is a set of small and medium-sized food businesses displaying their merchandise on sidewalks for the local residents. This distinctive market spreads out along Dimitriou Gounari and Demosthenous Streets, over to the beginning of Tsamadou Street.
The market of Piraeus has a good reputation, because it combines quality with lower prices and is not organized by an institution. It is also popular for its large variety of mostly Greek food products. The central municipal market of Piraeus was located where the tower of Piraeus is today and was demolished in 1969 to make way for the tower.
