More than 90% of Do Luong market traders agree to move the market

The Do Luong Trade Center (TTTM) project combined with Do Luong traditional market has a prime location on National Highway 7 in Do Luong town, with a total investment of more than 330 billion VND. The project is planned on 3.44 hectares, including 1,338 kiosks, stalls, stalls, 3.5-storey kiosks and a 7-storey Trade Center.

Do Luong market is spacious and spacious, worthy of its position as the leading market in Nghe An.

One of the reasons why traders at Do Luong market had high consensus in the early days of moving to the new market was because the infrastructure and facilities were very spacious, clean, well-managed and especially the sales revenue of the people increased.

Ms. Chung, who sells pho at the new Do Luong market, said: “I have bought 6 pho stalls here, and I want to buy 2 more stalls and 1 high-rise stall. Honestly, we spend about 200 million VND to buy a stall for life, which is less than 400,000 VND/month, while the stall area is twice as large, and the internal roads are also spacious and comfortable. Compared to the old market, which is about 300,000 VND/month, it is very cheap. At the old market, I sold 5 or 6 chickens and 2 kg of beef in the morning. The market has just opened, and not all the people have come in, but I have sold 20 or 21 chickens for pho and nearly 5 kg of beef every morning. It is clean, airy and fragrant here, not only people in the market but also people from outside come to buy my goods, customers can rest assured.”

Converting traditional market models is a common trend being implemented across the country.

After exactly one year of construction, with rapid progress, the Investor has completed the project and has been accepted by the Department of Construction since March 2021 and the Provincial Fire Police have accepted the conditions to put the project into operation. The project has also been appraised by the Department of Industry and Trade and submitted to the Provincial People's Committee for approval of the plan to arrange the product lines, business locations and market operation regulations since August 2018.

Ms. Pham Huong, a trader at Do Luong market, shared: “We have been waiting for more than a year to move into the new market. When we officially moved our goods here and welcomed the first customers, we felt really happy, like a dream come true. The market is large, beautiful, spacious, and does not get wet from the rain or the sun, so in general, we do not have to worry about anything. We really thank the investor for building this market for the people.”

Do Luong market is bustling day and night, a joy for small traders.

Mr. Bui Thanh Chinh - Deputy General Director of Hai An - Do Luong Cooperative shared: "During the implementation of the Do Luong traditional market-combined shopping center project, the investor also faced certain difficulties and challenges, but thanks to the consensus of the traders as well as the support of the local government, all problems were resolved satisfactorily. To create infrastructure synchronization, we also paid 100% of the cost with a total investment of more than 12 billion VND to upgrade the National Highway 7 section, the service road wider than 21m and the road on the side of the motor vehicle inspection center so that traffic to the new market is spacious and most convenient".

The Do Luong traditional market combined with commercial center is one of the successful projects of the Investor. The biggest success is that all the people who have come to do business in the new market are very excited and supportive as if they have moved to a "new home" after a long time doing business in the old, dilapidated and unsanitary market; affecting the health of the people doing business and customers coming to shop.

The project not only facilitates trading for small traders and Do Luong residents, creates jobs for workers, but also helps accelerate the economic growth rate of the entire district; contributes to soon upgrading Do Luong town to a town and creates a spacious, clean and beautiful urban appearance for the town./.
