Tony and Sandra have been involved at the site near Tesco in Battlefield for some 20 years, latterly with their three-year-old English springer spaniel Bailey being the star of the show.
"It is time to retire and spend a bit of time with the family, which we haven't done for such a long time," said Tony, 61.
"Running markets has been a dedication and a religion for us.
"We are grateful for being given the opportunity to run the Sunday market and honoured to have served Shrewsbury."
The couple have also been called on to cover markets all over the country in their time.
They have also been involved with Wellington and Shrewsbury's indoor markets.
Tony recalls how there have been many challenges to how markets have been run over the year.
He was first asked to take over running the car boot operation at Harlescott, before taking over the whole market about eight years ago.
