The new wholesale market located at the Cross Border Industrial Zone in Ilha Verde provides some 235 stalls – double those in the old market (pictured) – local broadcaster TDM Radio News reported.
The Supervisory Committee and Consultative Committee of the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM) visited the new wholesale market on Wednesday, with IACM announcing that new suppliers who have not operated in the old market will be allowed to move in accordingly.
The new market occupies some 6,200 square metres: the ground floor to the sixth floor is dedicated to suppliers, while the seventh floor has been designated for the management company and warehouse.
The IACM offices will be located from the eighth to eleventh floors, with some 274 parking lots for light vehicles and 223 motorcycles will be available in the new market.
