Local Food Stall: unique atmosphere and changing local foods!

Artikkelikuva: Local Food Stall: unique atmosphere and changing local foods!

In the newly renovated Hakaniemi Market Hall, a new type of space use and activity is being piloted in autumn 2023 as part of the Urban&Local project.

The Local Food Stall will open its doors on 9 September. It has an important role to play: to give small and micro-entrepreneurs a chance to showcase their products and try their hand at market hall sales. This means that customers can enjoy handmade delicacies and local specialities, prepared with skill and passion in the Uusimaa region.

This is a great opportunity to support local entrepreneurs and pick up some wonderful culinary treasures!
