Marché De Covè, Open market in Covè, Benin.

The market spans across multiple streets with vendors displaying agricultural products, textiles, spices, and household items on wooden tables and ground mats.

The market location emerged during the 1800s as a central trading point between farmers from Zou department and merchants traveling through the Porto-Novo region.

Local women wearing traditional Fon attire sell palm oil, cassava, and yams while engaging in commercial negotiations following ancestral customs.

The market operates every four days according to the traditional Fon calendar, with peak activity occurring between 7:00 AM and 2:00 PM.

Merchants at this market maintain a specialized section for medicinal plants used in traditional healing practices of the Fon and Yoruba communities.
