Kensington Market BIA

The Kensington Market BIA is a community-oriented not-for-profit association who works in partnership with the City of Toronto to enhance the Kensington Market business district. Cherished by Torontonians and visitors alike, this thriving mixed commercial-residential neighbourhood is well known for its independent spirit, colourful shop-fronts, vibrant murals, charismatic locals, family-friendly Pedestrian Sunday events, and over 240 unique and eclectic businesses. The BIA is the voice of our diverse business community, run by a volunteer Board of Management elected from its Members (who either owns a commercial or industrial property or have a storefront within the BIA area).

The BIA’s mandate is to improve, beautify and promote the market as a business and shopping district through marketing, public programming and streetscape improvements.
