Workers start building a new market in Mbare this week. The modern complex will house 10,000 traders when finished. President Mnangagwa announced these plans on Friday at the opening of phase one. The government rebuilt the first section after the fire destroyed the original market last October, leaving 5,000 vendors without income. Officials will skip normal purchasing rules to speed up construction.

The president wants markets like this across all provinces. He asked everyone to make these spaces safer from fires and other disasters. The new building will have multiple floors with better bathrooms and fire protection systems. Mnangagwa told managers to keep rent prices affordable for small business owners. He believes the project supports national goals for 2030.

Local Government Minister Daniel Garwe said workers are setting up a temporary trading space at Tsiga Grounds. Construction company Masimba Holdings received permission to begin work immediately. Vendors should move to their new spots by early June. The modern marketplace matches the government's aim to rebuild better after disasters hit trading areas.
