Setting aside the physical structure that is Mon Repos Market, its culture and its trading derive very much from the outdoor ‘business’ that gets done on the ‘shoulders’ of the East Coast Public Road, immediately outside the physical structure as well as on the narrow, usually cramped streets, that are part of the wider community itself.
Popular for its meats and fish of all kinds Mon Repos Market has long been a weekend ‘magnet’ for shoppers who also come from neighboring communities as well as from distant ones that stretch back, both west, towards Georgetown and east, towards the villages that extend into West Coast Berbice.
