THE Okandjengadi youth are organizing an open market day for the neighbourhood’s informal traders to sell their products in an effort to support small business owners.
This is intended to support local informal traders who have trouble finding space at the yearly expos held in the country’s northern parts.
Co-founder of the open market day, Martha Vilho, said the event will be held at Okandjengadi’s Africa Motto soccer field from 6 to 10 April, when vendors will be able to reserve a free stall.
“Stalls will be distributed based on first come, first serve, and will be available until 3 April,” she said.
The youth at Okandjengadi put a lot of effort into helping those in need and improving lives via humanitarian initiatives, according to Vilho.
She said that they are now working hard to gather N$30 000 to solve issues like keeping boys and girls in schools and developing a market day for their local vendors.
Thus, they are currently looking for sponsors to ensure that they reach their goals.
Vilho indicated that those who are willing to assist can reach her on 0817448636.
