Nanyuki Old Market Phase II Near Completion
Updated on: Jan 15, 2021
The Nanyuki Old open air markets Phase II is near completion having been done more than 50 % complete.
More than 2,000 traders are set to occupy the section which will have been complete before end of the month. The construction work is already complete with the only thing remaining being marking of the stalls for the occupants.
The floor has been covered with cabros to improve hygiene in the market. Enough taps and ablution blocks have also been set to ensure hygiene-related diseases never see the light in the modern market. Proper drainage system has been set up to carry away the rain water and other waste away from the traders and the customers.
Security within the business premises has been enhanced through a fenced wall and secured gates which ensures no unauthorized personnel access the area at night when the traders are not around.
The facelift will see the number of customers drastically rise as movement and the business environment has been enhanced. Parking space near the market has been improved to encourage even more customers.
All roads within the market are being rehabilitated for easy access of the facility which provides all sorts of fresh produce.
Occupants had been relocated to allow for the facelift to take shape and modernize the facility to the current status. The refurbishment of the market is going on a three-phase method having been funded by KDSP. Traders occupy and start their business in the relevant complete phase while contractors move to begin construction works in the next phase.
Construction of the first phase came to completion late last year and dedication and prayers took effect to usher the over 2,000 traders on November 02 2020 to commence their daily activities in a better environment.
The project is being funded by KDSP Level 2 Grant. The rehabilitation of the market is part of the agenda of Laikipia County Government to improve business environment to spur commercial activities.
Already customers are coming from all the surrounding counties to get the various market products. Other traders from neighboring counties also converge in the market on the two market days to offer customers a wide range of products to choose from. The special market days are Tuesdays and Fridays.
