It was quite sunny late in the afternoon on Tuesday December 1st, 2020. I wanted to by an apple cause it had been a long time since I had one. I got dressed and boarded a cab to my favorite grocery shop to get the apple.

Now, there are many green grocers in my area, especially the roadside vendors. I go to them for garden eggs, watermelons and bananas but whenever I wanted to get an apple, I always went to my favorite green grocer - Market Square.

Here's how it looks like on google map.

What makes Market Square my Favorite?

The reason why Market Square is my favorite is because they maintain high standards in the products. Market Square is a fast rising Nigerian grocery retail chain. That being their status, you can always expect to see high quality products when you shop there.

Also, their prices are even cheaper than road side vendors. Hence, their slogan - Find more, pay less.

When I got to Market Square that Tuesday, I noticed they were doing some sort of promo as people gathered around to listen to music from a disc jockey stationed outside.

I passed them and went straight into the shopping mall to buy my apple.

Now, there are a lot of fruits Market Square sells but there are no bananas, garden eggs or water melons. The however have green and red apples, lettuces, bell pepper, strawberries, dates, lime and other fruits I couldn't identify. Most of these were displayed in a refrigerating shelf.

This refrigerating shelf keeps the fruits at a particular temperature. You can be sure of the standards of hygiene of what you're buying.

So, I bought a green apple as that was what I went there at this particular time for.

Prices

At Market Square, there are no price lists, the prices are pasted on the fruits. SO giving you a run down of their prices is same as taken pictures of each fruit. Mind you, the final price of each piece of fruit depends on the weight of that piece of fruit.

However, I'll tell you about the price of the apple I bought. No, I won't tell you. I'll show you, so you can see for yourself.


The first pricing of the fruit pasted on a nylon the fruit was put in.

[The date and currency is wrong here]
[Currency is - NGN. Date is - 01/12/2020 (dd/mm/yyyy)]


Reciept. Currency - NGN. Weight of fruit - 0.25kg

Please Note: The price of 1,095 (NGN) is for 1kg of this apple but since the apple weighed only 0.25kg, I had to only pay 273.75 (NGN).

So, that's my favorite green grocer for you, very standard hygiene, good sales practice and cheap prices.

How often do I go there?

Frankly, I don't eat apples or these other fruits Market Square sells often. I mostly take banana and garden egg. However, whenever I want to eat a fruit market square sells, I'll go there.

Conclusion

Market Square is my favorite green grocer because of their standards and their cheap prices. Their services are unique too, selling fruit by their weight. Whenever I want to buy a fruit that Market Square sells, I'll surely go there.
