Niger/Economy: Appropriate frameworks for more secure commercial activities
The Nigerien authorities are actively working to enhance the living and working conditions of their citizens. As part of this effort, they have established new commercial hubs in Niamey, providing traders with a safer and more organized environment to conduct their businesses.
Previously, many vendors operated haphazardly along the city’s streets and avenues, exposing themselves to various risks, including harsh weather conditions and traffic hazards.
« Now, we have a secure and well-structured space to work in, » said one delighted merchant.
These modern marketplaces aim to improve urban planning, ease traffic congestion, and create better working conditions for traders.
At the same time, they offer residents more accessible and safer shopping locations for their daily needs.
According to observers, this initiative marks a significant step forward in Niamey’s economic development and urban organization.
It also reflects the government’s commitment to transforming the capital into a more modern, structured, and vibrant city.
