\nDubai Municipality has inaugurated Bloom Market,<\/a> an integrated area for selling and purchasing vegetables and fruits.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 66,000 square metre market, located at Dubai Fruit and Vegetable Market, comes in line with the Municipality’s efforts to promote Dubai’s attractiveness by implementing integrated projects that ensure quality of life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Director of the markets at Dubai Municipality, Mohammed Faraidooni, said: \u201cBloom Market is one of Dubai Municipality\u2019s key projects, which aims to provide access to fresh products directly from the source, especially since the market will have exclusively imported fruits that are not found in other markets, to establish itself as a distinctive shopping hub.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“In addition, the Municipality aims to enhance investment and economic opportunities that are still available to investors by providing them with products at the supplier\u2019s rate. The project also aligns with the Municipality’s goal of establishing marketplaces, entertainment hubs, and tourist destinations in the emirate and thus boost Dubai’s appeal and quality of life while ensuring its prosperity in life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe market is designed to be a comprehensive destination, which is equipped with cutting-edge services and logistic facilities. Additionally, it provides top-notch services to consumers by adhering to global standards, offering premium products, in addition to containing a section for organic products at competitive prices, as well as implementing advanced technologies that guarantee the quality and validity of vegetables and fruits in accordance with Dubai’s food safety regulations.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The two-floored market houses around 600 booths and platforms on the ground floor designated for selling local products as well as often imported fruits and vegetables.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The official revealed that the old Central Fruit and Vegetable Market, which went through several development and expansions including the opening of a multi-storey cold storage facility, would be further revamped.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\u201cProbably, there will be a decision to develop the current market and also to expand this market as well. So this market might also get bigger eventually.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Regarding the type of leasing to be made on the first floor, Mr Faraidooni added:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWe have a lot of proposals on the table [for the first floor]. At the moment, I am not sure if we will make a single, huge shop there or allot space for different shops like on the ground floor.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What is certain for now is that the plan would definitely see the market expanding the variety of produce on offer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will add dates and other dry fruits, eggs, and poultry, but definitely not fish.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
