Greetings everyone,
Today, I would like to take you through one of the market centers in Kumasi that sells all kinds of stuff. This is a hotspot for market traction for day-to-day traders who are looking to make some decent sales. I come here from time to time when I need a pair of footwear or undergarments at affordable prices.
The name Roman Hill was actually obtained from the big roman church situated in the vicinity. It is the paramount church of the Roman Catholic religious organization where they host massive congregations from time to time, hence the name.
What I like about this area is how organized the market is. This makes it fairly easier to navigate within and purchase what you might be looking for.
Here is a look at the clothing section of the market. This section is mostly cloth-dominated so you can find all kinds of clothes that suits what you may be looking for.
Most of these market men and women who sell second hand clothing tend to display them in pans and trays along the road to attract customers. This technique is popularly known as the bend down boutique since one would have to bend down to pick the item they might be attracted to.
The average Ghanaian prefers to purchase these second-hand clothing due to their affordable prices and the notion that they tend to last longer than the brand new ones.
However, not everyone likes these second hand clothing. Thus there are shops that are open around to suit your preferences. These stores typically sell brand new clothing and are neatly arranged for the consumer to pick from.
This is where I buy items such as undergarments and some shorts to wear around the neighborhood.
In other areas around the market, you will find it dominated with shops that focus solely on footwear. They are a blend of products of the highest quality as well as fake products. It is therefore entirely up to the consumer to know the difference.
Other sections of the market deal with normal day to day product you may be needing including computer accessories, slippers, etc.
To conclude, Roman Hill is one of the areas you might want to visit for a good shopping experience due to its well organized structure and friendly atmosphere.
Thank you for your attention.
