Market stall fabrication in Kenya

Build modular market stalls to an approved vendor layout.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional sample order: One demountable market stall approximately 2 m wide × 1.5 m deep for a permitted indoor trading location. Buyer approves display height, transport modules and layout. Competent design addresses stability and public contact; outdoor wind, roof canopy and electrical lighting are separate designs. No assumption that a portable stall may occupy public land.

Who is the first customer?

Market traders and event vendors with permitted spaces.

Test the offer

Make a sample counter or frame that fits an actual approved stall footprint.
