The spring fair season kicks off in the Vitebsk region

Annually, on weekends and pre-holiday days in April and May, spring fairs are held for the sale of food and non-food products, agricultural products, as well as seasonal goods.

The corresponding decree of the regional executive committee was adopted on March 18 of the current year (No. 60r "On organizing trade in the spring-summer period").

As reported by Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Executive Committee Alexander Subbotin, trade organizations, industrial and agricultural enterprises will actively participate in the fairs, and sales and promotions with discounts on in-demand and socially significant goods will be organized.

Local executive committees are forming schedules for fairs and mobile trade, taking into account the coverage of not only the population of cities and regional centers, but also small urban settlements, including those in border areas. For example, mobile trade will be organized weekly from April 12 in the urban settlements of Vidzy, Voropayevo, Lyntupy, and the agro-town of Bigosovo.

On the territory of the markets in Verkhnedvinsk and Braslav, pre-Easter fairs will be held on April 16 and 23, with the participation of enterprises of the meat and dairy industry, local industry, and branches of the Vitebsk regional consumer union. Bakery and confectionery products with a festive theme will be presented by regional structures of OJSC "Vitebskhlebprom".

In the future, fairs and mobile trade will focus on the sale of seasonal assortments – garden and vegetable inventory, seed potatoes, planting material of fruit and berry crops, mineral fertilizers, building materials, and other groups of goods. Such fairs will be held on April 30 and May 7 in Verkhnedvinsk and Braslav, and on May 1 in Postavy and others.

In Vitebsk, the spring fair of educational institutions of the region, which will be held this year on April 29, traditionally enjoys increased interest.

With the onset of the spring-summer period, the operation of non-stationary trade and catering facilities in places of mass recreation will resume, including during events dedicated to the celebration of May 1 and 9.

will be widely presented goods produced in the Republic of Belarus, both in stationary retail outlets of the region, as well as at fairs, mobile and seasonal facilities.
