Fresh fruits and vegetables/Hydronie market upgrade/Parika tour

In this video we show you the fresh fruits and vegetables at the Hydronie market and the upgrade the market is having as well as a tour around Parika. These vendors sell there every day, while many others ply their trade on Thursdays and Sundays. On Wednesdays some stores and offices like Digicel, the banks, the Guyana Power & Light Inc. and the Guyana Water Authority, are closed. They are opened on Sundays though, because that’s the big market day and the main business day for them. The shed at the front and back entrances would be covered with translucent sheets, or the clear zinc sheets, so there would natural lighting. A tarmac is currently being constructed at the back of the market, where there was a ball field. President Irfaan Ali had promised to expand the market so the vendors can come off the street and have a proper place to sell. The project, which also include a 300-foot concrete and steel fence and a four-chamber sanitary facility or washroom, is being undertaken at a cost of $29.2 million.
