Located at the corner of Botfontein and Boesak roads in Wallacedene, Kraaifontein, the new market is planned to be a hive of economic activity.
Vendor applications open today, Thursday, 26 February 2026, and submissions will be accepted up to and including Sunday, 15 March 2026. This is a permanent market facility developed to strengthen the local informal economy and provide safe, accessible trading space for small businesses that will operate daily from 06:00 to 18:00.
‘The Economic Growth Directorate is dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs and strengthening the informal economy through well-planned and modern trading facilities. The Wallacedene Container Market is another step toward building a thriving, inclusive and sustainable local economy,’ said Alderman James Vos, the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Economic Growth
The market forms part of the City’s broader investment into modern, well managed public trading infrastructure. It has been designed to support local enterprise growth by offering purpose built container trading units, essential services and an inviting public environment. The facility includes container shops of approximately 15m² each, with supporting amenities such as water, electricity and ablution facilities.
Applications are open to Wallacedene based entrepreneurs, including:
Sellers of crafts, handmade goods and creative products
Fresh produce vendors
Food and beverage traders
Internet café operators and other service based businesses
Small scale enterprises that meet local community needs
Successful applicants will be contacted for interviews and onboarding, during which all trading conditions and operational details will be explained. If you do not receive any communication from the City, please consider your application unsuccessful.
