Souk Sidi Boumendil, Traditional market in Medina, Tunisia

The market extends from Sidi El Bechir place to Spain Street, featuring numerous shops and vendors selling products from China and Eastern Asia.

Originally established with just six spice shops, the market expanded significantly during the 1990s with merchants arriving from the Jelmah region.

The market operates through strong family networks, with men predominantly managing the shops while women form the majority of customers.

Located near the eastern entrance of the medina, this market offers access to various imported goods at lower prices than conventional retail stores.

The market demonstrates economic adaptability through informal trading networks that connect rural agricultural regions with urban commercial centers.
