Located in the Arnavutköy Municipality Women's Culture and Art Center, My Bazaar continues to sell hand-made products.
At the entrance of the Arnavutköy Municipality Women's Culture and Art Center, the Bazaar also contributes to the economic development of women residing in Arnavutköy. Women of the region deliver handicraft products to the bazaar officials, allowing the sale of these products. They can determine the price of their products, and these women are called to transfer their money after their products are sold.
Contribution to the Family Economy
In the last 4 years, a total of 6,718 different products have been sold in the Bazaar, which has attracted great attention from women producing hand-made works. My Bazaar has so far received products from 2,349 producers and has presented 11,740 products to buyers in the last 4 years.
My Bazaar is thus bringing producers and consumers together, helping women to turn their labor into earnings and contributing to their family budget. Women who contribute to their family economy feel happy for turning their products into earnings.
