Northside Marketplace to be run by Testa Companies after vendor complaints
After a prominent vendor, Akron Honey, pulled its products from Northside Marketplace’s shelves earlier this week, other vendors came forward and cited outstanding unpaid sales from owner Justin Lepley. On Saturday, Joel Testa, whose Testa Companies owns the complex the marketplace is located in, said in a press release posted by 7th Floor Clothing’s Preston Clark, a marketplace vendor, that he will take back control of Northside Marketplace, effective immediately, and turn it into a nonprofit enterprise.
