Mercado Modelo de Huancayo

The two-floor marketplace spans 4,956 square meters, with vegetables and groceries on the ground level and meat sections on the mezzanine level.

The market structure, inaugurated in 1972, replaced the previous trading activities that took place at Plaza Huamanmarca during the early 20th century.

Local vendors at Mercado Modelo maintain regional traditions through the sale of indigenous textiles, handicrafts, and traditional Peruvian food products.

The market operates from 7:00 AM with varying closing times between 2:00 PM and 8:00 PM, offering fresh produce, meats, and clothing across different sections.

The building features a concrete arch system that creates an open marketplace environment while providing natural ventilation throughout the commercial space.
