FORT MILL, SC (AP) -- It's opening weekend for an indoor flea market in South Carolina boasting 318,000 square feet of shopping.

The Herald of Rock Hill reports Saturday that Trader Marc's includes about 70 vendors in a climate-controlled warehouse near the North Carolina border that is both a flea market and farmers market.

Manager Chuck Smith says York County farmers get discounted rates on space.

Items for sale include clothes, jewelry, antiques, fresh produce and flowers. The warehouse also contains a food court.

Trader Marc's opened its doors Friday just off Interstate 77.

Business partner J.R. Pettus says many of the vendors have opened booths after losing their jobs.
