An Insider’s View of Purbachal Mishti Bazaar on 300ft Road
Standing in the middle of the newly built and ever developing 300 ft road, there is a cluster of local shops called Purbachal Mishti Bazaar, owning the peripherals between Rupganj and Dhaka. This particular area used to be a lowland crisscrossed by streams of canals and rivers, with huge chunks of watery farming land in between them. With the sand-filled solid land, this expansion point of the city is now a landmark of upcoming growth, development and a fantastic future- awaiting the development of first of its houses and commercial buildings.
The location of Purbachal Mishti Bazaar stands as one of the core signifying element, as the other element is the scope of barter which this market offers. As the Google tour shows, this market is a very popular destination for finding fresh and organic perishables. You can find vegetables, dairy, fruits, fish- every kind of farm products in here, fresh. The best part? You get it from the sellers themselves. This market extinguishes the role of profit-making middlemen, which is how this bazaar affords to showcase uncontaminated groceries at a very low price. Thus the bazaar makes a rare economical offer to the inhabitants of Gulshan, Baridhara and Basundhara- a market place close to home with cheap organic food. Truly, this market is the symbol of the change that was much needed in this city of profit-mongering businessmen, regarding location, sellers and products
