Qout Market launches this Saturday

Qout Market is a new farmers market (not to be confused with the Shakshooka pop-up farmers market) that will be launching this Saturday November 2nd. Qout Market will take place on the first Saturday of every month starting with this month and it’s going to be located in the large space between the Arraya parking lot and the Arraya mall in Kuwait City (picture below) across from Hamra Tower [Map].

The Qout Market will have stands selling crafts, street food, fresh flowers, jarred items, artisanal products, baked goods and local produce. The market will be open all day long from 10AM to 10PM. I’m sadly not going to be in Kuwait to check it out but if you are then you should. For more information you can check them out on [Facebook] or follow them on [Instagram]

I suppose they will only be having this in the cooler months.

Oh, and thanks for the info on where it is “kicated”.

“… it’s going to be kicated in the large …”

If you really want to buy stuff from Wafra farms sold in the back of a truck friday market has them every week and always has. It’s just not marketed as elegantly

Proud to be a farmer is the new Proud to be Kuwaiti.

I’ve never been to a market like that, but i imagine it’s basically Jam3iya products with a hip name and logo, and a zero added to the price.

actually you get more yummy stuff in a Jam3iya! But you know how it is here. Proud to be ‘trending’ with nothing below the surface

Have you guys ever been to a farmers market anywhere in the world? Did you guys know the products sold at farmers markets are also similar to products sold at super markets? Have you guys ever been to a vegetable market? Did you know they also sell vegetables in super markets? Oh and what about fish markets? Did you know they also sell fish at super markets too?

You guys need to stop fucking whining I’m so tired of this crap.

So disappointing…not at all like a farmers market, there were so many companies there. 80% of the stuff was sold out by 2pm. I won’t be going back in the future, it was definitely a waste of a Saturday.

I’m sorry you felt that way lovely. The idea of this market was for it to be a community project. We asked some companies to take part in order to help support the smaller food producers.

Have any idea what it costs to put on a show of that scale in a commercial area? Certainly wouldn’t be right to pass it on to the small guy.

Waste of a Saturday is a bit harsh, and I would have thought all the people who complained about there being nothing to do in Kuwait would have appreciated the gargantuan effort it took to pull this together as opposed to us sitting back and complaining alongside you. Guess you’re just one of those people, but there were about 5,000 people who disagreed and nearly 10k Instagram followers to the contrary.

Enjoy your regular Saturdays!
