New Covent Garden Market's ‘Godfather of Fruit’ passes away
It’s with great sadness that we report the passing of Peter Fowler (78), MBE, on Saturday 4 March, 2023. He was undoubtedly one of New Covent Garden Market’s most influential people of the last 50 years and had acted as Honorary President of the Covent Garden Tenants Association (CGTA) since his retirement in 2012.
