Hwange Local Board Ward 6 Councillor Mlungisi Zhanero has welcomed the signing of lease agreements and allocation of bays to vendors at the newly established vegetable market stalls at Empumalanga's DRC Shopping Centre, describing the development as a major step towards improving orderliness and cleanliness within the trading area. Councillor Zhanero said the formal allocation of trading spaces will help create a well-organised marketplace, enhance hygiene standards, and provide vendors with a secure and conducive environment to conduct their businesses. He added that the initiative reflects Hwange Local Board's commitment to supporting small-scale traders while improving service delivery and the overall appearance of the shopping centre. The new market stalls are expected to bring convenience to both vendors and customers, promote compliance with local regulations, and contribute to the growth of the local economy through structured and sustainable informal trading. #HwangeLocalBoard #EmpumalangaDRC #MarketDevelopment #SupportingVendors #CleanEnvironment #LocalEconomicGrowth #ServiceDelivery #BuildingHwangeTogether
