The new market covers an area of 1.19 hectares and was officially opened in the presence of representatives of central and local public authorities, agricultural producers and partners involved in the project.
The market offers over 300 stalls for traders, 100 parking spaces, two access roads and 30 pavilions.
The Mayor of Ungheni, Vitalie Vrabie, stated that the completed project is in line with the original vision of developing a modern market, tailored to the needs of traders and shoppers.
Present at the event, the Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Doina Gherman, noted the transformation of the space, recalling the poor conditions in which the market had operated in the past.
“Almost 80,000 residents of the district will have a modern and well-maintained space where they can buy local produce, and our market traders will benefit from better conditions in which to sell their goods,” said the MP.
The project “Construction of the agri-food market in the municipality of Ungheni” was implemented by the Government of the Republic of Moldova, through the Central Regional Development Agency, with funding from the National Fund for Regional and Local Development (FNDRL) and a contribution from local public authorities.
Of the total project cost, 15 million lei comes from the FNDRL; over 2.5 million lei is the contribution from Ungheni Town Council.
The new market will be open daily, except on Mondays.
