The Gubadley Marketplace is closed today after the local authority increased taxes for traders as some of the market’s traders have confirmed to Mustaqbal.
Some traders in that neighbourhood told Mustaqbal that management used to collect $ 10 (Ten dollars) from traders and raised it to $ 15 (fifteen dollars).
“The Gubadley Market remains closed because of a tax increase for traders who are unable to pay as a result of low sales from small enterprises most notably Exhibitions, Vegetable Tables, Small Shops, Oil and Bread Machines.” one of the Gubadley market traders told Mustaqbal.
Gubadley’s authorities did not comment on the complaint that the market remains shut after the traders said they were subjected to money they could not afford.
