Peruvian market vendor disputes
Overview
In Chiclayo, merchants in the Reque district have staged protests against proposed rental hikes for the new Modelo Market. Vendors claim the municipality has set fees that are disproportionate to retail reality, citing examples where vegetable stalls might see monthly costs rise from 21 soles to 365 soles. Mayor Manuel Neciosup Rivera has maintained that stall allocation is being handled through a formal contest.
In Arequipa, vendors at the San Camilo market have marched to the Provincial Municipality to demand the completion of a stall privatization process. Under Law No. 32738, merchants are seeking to become owners of their commercial spaces to facilitate modernization. The San Camilo Market Workers Association noted that the municipality has yet to form the necessary commission to proceed with the legal requirements.
