A modern three-storey Githunguri Market

Working with the National Government, Hon. Muhinja is delivering a modern three-storey Githunguri Market. Construction is currently underway and roughly 50% complete.

Once finished, the market will provide improved trading spaces for local traders. Improved trading spaces give traders a more secure and organized environment to sell their goods.

The completed market will support small businesses and stimulate economic growth across Githunguri Ward. A modern trading facility draws more customers and gives local enterprises room to grow.

Empowering traders during construction

While construction continues, traders have been supported directly with market umbrellas and trading equipment. Umbrellas protect traders' goods and customers from sun and rain during ongoing works.

This direct support keeps business moving throughout the construction period. Traders can continue serving customers without waiting for the full market to be completed.
