CROSSROADS Maldives, the first leisure precinct in the Maldives, is set to launch weekly street markets on the property starting from April 23rd, 2023. The new offering will be unveiled as part of the Eid Al-Fitr celebrations at the destination, giving entrepreneurial enthusiasts the opportunity to showcase their products and take the next leap in their businesses.

Located just 15 minutes from the capital, the event will allow interested vendors to set up their stalls for free, providing them with the opportunity to test their entrepreneurial skills while introducing their products to a larger audience and potential customers. Through this platform, entrepreneurs can also gain valuable insight into their products or services and better understand customer needs and demands, ultimately familiarizing themselves with ways to improve their products.

The concept draws inspiration from the vibrant Thai market scenes and aims to recreate and reimagine the magic in the heart of the Indian Ocean. This ingenious initiative is targeted towards local entrepreneurs and residents, giving them the opportunity to set their mark in the business world without having to invest large amounts of capital into their startups.

The street market will be hosted every Friday from 5 pm to 9 pm, providing an exciting weekend activity for people looking for something different than typical dinners or catching up with friends over coffee. This provides the ideal window for entrepreneurs to bring their innovative ideas and creations to the table, amuse visitors, network and build connections with other like-minded individuals in a vibrant and laid-back atmosphere.

CROSSROADS Maldives aims to provide a platform for emerging entrepreneurs to showcase their talents and products while promoting the local business industry. This event is just one of the many initiatives that the leisure precinct has taken to promote entrepreneurship and foster local talent.
