Haiti - Economy : The largest marketplace will open in Fond Parisien
16/07/2014 10:00:22

As part of its program to help the people in Haiti to address the challenge of self-sustainability, Love A Child, a nonprofit based in Fort Myers, has announced Tuesday, July 15, that nearly 2,400 new jobs could soon be added to the Haitian economy. The largest marketplace in Haiti, Gwo Mache’ Mirak, is set to open in September 2014.

Gwo Mache’ Mirak, or the Grand Miracle Market, is a new commercial development consisting of 10-pavillion-style buildings built on 20-acres (8-hectares) and located just 30 miles east of Haiti’s capital, in Fond Parisien, along the main route between Port-au-Prince and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

The construction of the marketplace is being backed by Pastor Jentezen Franklin and the Kingdom Connection Partners, who committed to the $1,000,000 needed to build the facilities.

The new Grand Miracle Market will feature premier shopping, entertainment, and dining; all in a safe, clean environment which reinforces Haiti’s economy. More than 800 vendor stalls will be available for a variety of small businesses to participate.

The Grand Miracle Market on-site offices opened yesterday morning for applicants interested in signing up to become vendors.
