The district lies on either side of the main Blochairn Road. In 1969 the Blochairn Fruit Market opened there, next to a junction on the M8. The market occupies {{cvt|32|acre}} and has 74 fruit and vegetable stalls and six fish stalls; it also handles flowers. It operates 24 hours a day and handles over two million tons of produce per year; it is used by caterers and food processors throughout central and western Scotland and also in Northern Ireland and Northern England.[1] It has been Scotland's largest outdoor market since the closure of Ingleston Market.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} The Fruit Market was previously located near Glasgow Cross.
