Reasons to visit Al Wakra Central Market in Qatar
The Al Wakra Central Market offers livestock and fodder, in addition to a variety of traditional items, fruits & vegetables, accessories, and so much more! Many can purchase meat from their livestock market, which is among the largest in the country.
The market, managed by Aswaq, a subsidiary of Hassad Food, spreads over an area of 230,000 square meters and is located only 30 minutes outside Doha and approximately 10 minutes from Hamad Port – open from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m.
At the market, people can select animals from the barns at the facility, which will be sent directly to the slaughterhouse, managed by Widam Food Co.
Besides porters, butchers, and other staff members at the market, veterinarians examine each animal before they are slaughtered. As a result, the meat's safe consumption will be ensured under the guidelines of the Ministry.
The Traditional market offers vegetables, fruits, dried fruits, honey, dates, clothes, accessories, traditional items, homeware, and much more!
