During the visit to the Summer Market, in which she contacted all 15 participants, Cristina Pedra highlighted the importance of this initiative that takes place in the summer, as well as the new commercial dynamics existing in the Mercado dos Lavradores, referring specifically to the opening of “many shops” previously closed, and the large influx of tourists and Madeirans to the place.
In addition to the current “very large dynamics” of the Mercado dos Lavradores, the vice-president of the Funchal City Council also advanced “the integrated vision” on the part of the municipal executive with regard to Municipal Markets since, for the first time, Summer Market also arrives at Penteada, also underlining the existence of “clear rules” on the part of the participants, recalling, in this sense, the “awareness” that the municipality, together with ARAE and AT, has done with traders, so that comply with “the rules, with pricing, in a transparent way”, thus benefiting consumers.
