Early, every Saturday morning my Aunt does her weekly household grocery shopping. She goes to this outdoor market about 10 mins from the house. This is what I saw...
 |
| VIBRANT |
 |
| MARKET LADIES OF ACCRA |
Most of the market stalls were run almost exclusively by women and their children. Every type of food, local and imported, was sold there.
 |
| Starting from lower left side some of the more common commodities (garlic cloves, ginger, sardine cans, oil, and red pepper) |
 |
| Rock Salt |
 |
| Fishy! Fishy! Fishy! |
To carry all your purchases, you hired a young woman or child that would wait for incoming customers.
This is Diana who helped us that day. She was stoic, professional, and graceful.
