Tuesday Market
The Tuesday Market is a specific, well-known market in the Mamprobi area of Accra, located in the Ablekuma South Sub-Metropolitan District. While it is open daily, trading activity historically “peaks” on Tuesdays, which is when traders with fresh goods from rural areas arrive in full capacity, hence its name.
