I am continuing in this installment of the Remember This Series to post old commercials that were screened on Sydney television.
This week is an advertisement from Paddy's Market's that was screened on Channel Nine on April 11, 1992.
In 1992, the City markets were located at the former Eveleigh Railyards at Redfern as the Haymarket site was under redevelopment at the time. They returned to Haymarket at the end of 1993, after spending five years at Redfern.
A key marketing tool at the time was the proximity to rail stations (Flemington and Redfern) to enable people to travel by public transport.
Compared to today market Days at Flemington remain unchanged (Friday and Sunday) but Haymarket has expanded to trade on Wednesday's Thursday's and Fridays.
Today, advertising of Paddy's Markets is usually confined to radio and newspapers.
