************************************************************
     The Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) announced today (November 20) that 344 market stalls in 39 public markets, which were not taken at open auctions held earlier, will be available to the public for renting at their upset prices on November 25 (Tuesday), on a first-come, first-served basis.

     The retail commodities allowed for sale in these stalls cover frozen (chilled) meat, fresh meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, food-related dry goods and wet goods, non-food related dry goods and wet goods, and service trades. The tenancy agreement is a three-year fixed term starting from January 1, 2026, with no right of renewal upon expiry. The monthly rent of the stalls vary depending on their sizes, locations, vacancy periods and the reduced upset prices from the last open auction of the individual stalls. Relevant information is available on the FEHD website.

     Members of the public who are interested in renting a market stall at its upset price should approach the following FEHD offices, as appropriate, to apply in person from 9.30am to 12.30pm or 2.30pm to 4.30pm on November 25 (Tuesday):

     A spokesman for the FEHD said, "Applicants for the market stalls must be at least 18 years old and ordinarily reside in Hong Kong. To allow more people to select the stalls and increase customer choices by enhancing the diversity in terms of the variety of stalls, there will be a restriction on the number of stalls that can be rented in the same market by a single tenant. Any person who is currently a stall tenant is allowed to select one stall in the same market. The existing tenants under the new three-year fixed term tenancy scheme are allowed to select a stall in the same market, but must vacate and return the current stall to the FEHD before the effective date of commencement of the new tenancy agreement. The terms and conditions of renting market stalls on a first-come, first-served basis have been uploaded to the FEHD website, detailing qualifications of the applicants." 

     â€‹Details of renting public market stalls on a first-come, first-served basis have been uploaded to the FEHD website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/pleasant_environment/tidy_market/FCFS/index.html). Interested applicants may visit the department website or contact the respective District Environmental Hygiene Office.
