Almuñécar Town Council has finally awarded the works contract for the construction of the new municipal market.
The construction company in question, CHM – Obras e Infraestructura, entered the winning bid of 5,235,469.93 euros, (IVA included) giving a market-completition date of twelve months.
The Councillor for Urban Planning, Javier García, considers this outcome to be “very positive.” and assures that the process was “transparent and rapid.” despite, he say, the CA trying to “torpedo” the negotiations.
The company will build and run the municipal market and its underground parking, explained the councillor. Although the project specifications envisaged a build time of 14 months, the winning bid promised to do it in 12 months.
As for the new market building, it will house 40 stalls the same as the old market did and the underground carpark will have space for 200 vehicles.

Pierre: Good question.
and how will they fill the 40 stalls?
Will the fruterias, marisquerias and all which now opened their own shop reintegrate the market?
We taking bets on a time overrun, followed by the company going magnificently bankrupt when the penalty clauses start rolling in?
