Amman, (Petra) -- A Turkish
economic delegation pledged to put its expertise at
the disposal of Greater Irbid Municipality (GIM) to
help it build a central vegetable market.
GIM Mayor Abdul Raouf
Al-Tal met with the delegates from Bursa Chamber of
Industry and discussed scopes of cooperation to build
the market on 50,000 square meters.
Al-Tal briefed the visiting
delegation on the project's masterplan and its feasibility
study, noting it will replace the current market,
which does not have the capacity to cater for the
growing amounts of fruit and vegetables.
He also outlined available
investment opportunities between the two countries
in areas of hotels, malls, public parks, restaurants,
theme park and an exhibition hall.
The team visited Irbid
Chamber of Commerce and met with its Chairman Muhammad
Al Shoha, who presented a briefing on trade and retail
sector in the city.
