El Nuevo Tiempo reports that during a press conference Cuenca's Mayor Cristian Zamora, has invited professionals, associations, and consortiums to present projects for the remodeling of the Feria Libre market.

The market currently lacks order and optimal conditions for the sale of products. It also suffers from insecurity and environmental pollution.

The referential budget for the space's recovery is $8,000,000. The municipality plans to remodel the market in three stages. Proposals can be submitted until next October. Investors are also welcome to submit proposals.
