This is a pleasant surprise for shoppers using the doors of the Old Market Hall. They are surprised by the changes that have taken place in less than half a year. Half of the interior corridor has already been renovated, the lighting has been changed, the floor coverings have been changed and new display cabinets have been installed. According to market suppliers, working conditions improve every day.
Investments – reflective
On one side of the hallway there is already a concrete floor and lined with light stone tiles. The latter have been chosen so that the market is not slippery in winter. New lighting has been installed in the lobby – old fluorescent lamps have been replaced by modern LEDs. Another change that retailers are very pleased is the purchase of 15 new refrigerated display cases. “They are much more spacious, more comfortable and have an adjustable temperature,” said the merchants who have already displayed their wares in the new display cases. The room is also equipped with sewage and water networks, and a week later a high-quality air conditioning system will be in operation.
Until November 18. It is planned to finish the work in the second part of the Old Market. Soon not only flowers, various meat products, but also fish products will be marketed here. And from December 1. the fruit and vegetable trade will also move into the room.
“We seek and apply the best solutions. Resolute, thoughtful. We have already done half the work. We will continue to work so that both merchants and buyers in the market feel comfortable, that they are happy here, they want to visit us again. We strive that Klaipeda residents and city guests will find everything they may need on the market. We believe that the interest of traders in the old market and the development of small businesses is growing, “says Vyacheslav Karmanov, company director , who is optimistic about the flow of traders and buyers. He gave good news to those who trade in the Old Market area near the Lébartai cemetery: “We support small businesses. Taking into account the pandemic situation in the country, it is made the decision not to increase the rent for the point of sale this year ”.
Sellers and buyers: “like night and day“
“We compared the state of the market half a year ago and now: it differs by day and night. The acting director of the Old Market listens to our needs, listens to them and implements them. We have not seen such an economical market management before ”, the meat sellers are happy with the changes. They are seconded by other merchants. They realize that a lot has been done in a very short period of time: “We are going to work like on vacation. Decades of change have occurred. We are becoming a modern market. We will retire happily, ”jokes the older people in the market, who have been trading there for 30 years.
They also appreciate the market manager’s decision to hire a security service, which helped rescue the antisocial people gathered in the area.

The buyers who visit it also notice changes in the market.
“I live in Vilnius. I return to my native Klaipeda a couple of times a year and always visit the Old Market to buy quality products and have fun with well-known meat vendors. It is true that in the past, the view of the market was not pleasant, and walking down the corridor it was possible to escape. But this time I was pleasantly surprised. The market has been radically renewed, “he told journalist Ilona, who spoke at the market on Wednesday.
Ambition: a western market
Changes in the Old Market are also monitored and positively evaluated by city leaders. “Our old town is small, cozy, it has to have a market that people want to visit, come here not only to buy, but also to socialize, to have a good time, maybe not only to buy something, but also to sell That market is our goal. ” said Gintaras Neniškis, director of the municipal administration of the city of Klaipėda.
You want to see the Old Market as we see it in the big cities of Europe: cozy, attractive, small, selling fresh food, of exceptional quality, old-style products.
