The Grassroots Market Alliance and more than 10 groups held the "Hong Kong Market Festival 2019-2020 Closing Ceremony and Community Forum" at the bottom of Mobil Bridge (outside Master Plaza) today (5th). There are 18 stalls on the spot, and the goods include hand-made accessories, drinks, snacks and so on. Many stall owners said the business was affected by the epidemic.

Stella set up a stall here for the first time this year. She mainly sells her own non-additive beverages. The beverages are made by local factories. She has also stalled in other locations in the past.

Also making drinks, the fruit tea stall owner A Ying also sells some hand-made ornaments. The stall is her part-time job. She refers to the hand-made ornaments made of environmentally friendly materials, such as coasters woven from the extra thread on the rice bag. However, due to the epidemic situation this year, the number of stalls was low and the business volume was greatly affected.

Passing through the neighborhood, Miss Lu discovered the market, and also bought some handmade environmental protection. She pointed out that compared with ordinary shopping malls, the bazaar is more human, and the products are more diverse, which is quite interesting.
