    Get fresh vegetables and fruits at good prices here. Has a parking lot but when busy parking can be difficult to get. Remember to pay for parking too.

    Very affordable. It's accessible. I love doing my shopping here.

  • SoniGoogle review · 5 Dec 2023

    The market has got three floors. The down floor has got your food stuff, second floor and third floor sell clothes and household items. Food items are shockingly pricey not much difference from buying in a kibanda. There is plenty of paid parking.
