It depends on how you read the work "market".If the question is "What kind of place would serve as the market where Ancient Greeks could buy herbs?", this place would be the AGORA or central marketplace. The agora is an open-air market, very similar to the souks in the Middle East today or like a farmer's market that has a fixed location and never leaves.If the question is asking "How much demand was there worldwide for Greek herbs?", the answer would be that there really was none. There was trade between the Ancient Greek city states in herbs and with other Mediterranean civilizations, but the herbs were almost always an additional product to the much more desirable Greek exports, like olives, cheeses, wines, and pottery.

The Romans had many more new ideas than the Greeks in terms of medicine; Sanitation, Sewage system, etc. Other than that, they shared very similar views. They both had herbal remedies, doctors, amputations, theories, basic surgery, cleanliness, and both believed strongly in the gods.
