Mackenzie market vendor counting losses after fire

Onlookers during the raging fire at the Mackenzie market stall

A vendor is now counting her losses as her entire business was gutted in Wednesday night’s fire at the Mackenzie Market.

Cindy Allen,  the daughter of the 65-year-old vendor,  told Stabroek News yesterday that her mother has been vending at the Mackenzie Market for more than fifteen years. Although they are unware of the source of the fire and now await the authorities to indicate after they conclude their investigation, Allen said her mother is now left counting millions in losses. “We are trying to see how best we can recover at the moment”. She declined to comment further.
