LAP "Rent Hikes are a Kick in the Teeth"
17/09/2010
Today on the front cover of the South London Press, they reveal the truth of the rent hikes traders are facing in the market. FBM believe that London and Associated Properties are trying to force people out and turn the market into an upmarket destination shopping experience like Borough Market, that's to expensive for most people to shop in.
Last year, LAP, run by the Heller family, posted profits of £2 million pounds for Market Row alone.
FBM say to LAP's Chair Michael Heller and its CEO (his son) John Heller, wasn't the £2 million profit you made last year on Market Row alone enough
