Traders left the market on Irkutsk tract, 112 voluntarily, reports Chas Rush.
The traders had to do this after the Oktyabrsky district authorities announced that if the premises were not moved they would voluntarily demolish them. Since, according to federal law, from January 1, 2013, all spontaneous, unequipped markets must close.
Some have traded on this site for decades. Now they are urgently looking for new places to install trade kiosks.
“We will tentatively move to Lazareva, 8. Of course, there are losses, we have not been working for a week. Then we will need to do repairs. In general, moving is worse than a fire. Our clients, customers are already like family. We tried for them. There is nothing you can do. We’ll leave them here a poster with an address,” traders say.
The traders mostly dispersed to other indoor markets in the same area. Until mid-May, the shopping arcades where the population sells spring seedlings will remain untouched.
“Whether they left us or not, I don’t know yet. We’re standing still. When these tables are removed, we’ll bring the seedlings back and put them on the boxes,” the seedling sellers told Rush Hour.
