Viennese markets in change: souvenir stands have to give way!

In a fundamental new regulation of the Viennese market law, souvenir stands and similar stalls should disappear in the popular markets of Vienna. From the coming month, a novella will come into force that aims to replace these stands with an extended food offer. According to information from OE24 , the souvenir stands are particularly criticized at the Naschmarkt, which will no longer exist in the future. The operators receive a three -year transition period, compliance with which will be decisive in order to avoid the market status losses.

changes and new requirements

In addition to the souvenir stands, the city will also be able to influence privately operated stands. From now on, operators who want to pass on their stands must present a concept and a business idea to ensure the quality of the goods offer. The city of Vienna, which subsidizes the markets, strives for a broader selection and more diversity in the markets through these measures. The opening times of some markets are also extended at the request of the districts and the winter break is abolished. It should be emphasized that the Mazzucco market in Aspern will be established as a permanent weekly market in the future, as part of this new market order, so reports wien.orf.at .
