Morningside Traders Association

Morningside Traders Association is an organisation of local business partners from the vibrant and popular shopping village of Morningside, Comiston and Churchhill areas in the south of Edinburgh.

What do we do?

Where the independent stands alongside the corporate: Morningside Traders Association brings the trading community together.

We work together; with the Morningside Community Council, our Community Police team and with our local councillors on issues of concern to our business partners, other local traders and our local customers, residents and visitors. We get things done.

Morningside brings a whole spectrum of people to its core.

Morningside complements these core services with an excellent range of specialist shops and multi award-winning independent retailers. Morningside Traders Association brings it all together.
