Second-hand Market, Lumo
📖 Farafenni's Lumo (weekly market) is a vibrant hub for resellers, particularly for those seeking authentic Gambian crafts and fresh produce. Held at the outskirts of town, adjacent to the Farafenni Stadium, it's the prime location to find handmade goods like woven baskets, colorful textiles, and intricate jewelry, which are popular for resale. Beyond crafts, resellers can find a diverse range of local spices, fruits, and vegetables, often at competitive prices. An insider tip for resellers is to arrive early in the morning for the best selection and to engage in polite bargaining, as it's a common and expected practice in Farafenni's markets.
