Some modern markets have given towns across the country a facelift, but since they were commissioned by President Museveni, the structures remain unoccupied.
The markets, constructed under the Uganda Support to Municipal Infrastructure Development (USMID) project, are meant to create organisation and proper handling of foodstuffs for a complete chain of food supply.
In Soroti Town, the Shs24b market, which is to accommodate close to 1,300 vendors, remains unoccupied after several people who originally did not own stalls were allocated stalls.
