At the ground breaking ceremony on Monday, the women showcased their meri blouses, woven mats and garden produce.
“I have always wanted to sell my mats but because of less space, I was unable to do so,” said Jessie Piniau, a member of the Vunamurmur Women’s Fellowship.
Now that the market is open, Piniau and other mothers facing similar problems can sell their items in a more spacious and secure market.
“This market will certainly help our mothers to earn an income for their families,” said Hennie Kanini, president of the Women’s Fellowship.
