Sonipat, Dec 1 (KNN)  The Haryana State Agricultural Marketing Board (HSAMB) which is developing a one of its kind India International Horticulture Market (IIHM) for fruits, vegetables, flowers and dairy products at Ganaur here has called for bids for purchase of retail shops, offices and built shops.

The open auction will take place tomorrow, according to a press notification.

The global scale market facility spread across 537.6 acres of land with world class infrastructure will be equipped with advanced cold storage facilities and grading and packaging techniques.

India International Horticulture Market at Ganaur is a logistic hub designed for receiving long flow of fruits and vegetables from growing areas in order to recompose them and make them available to wholesalers in Delhi/NCR region wholesale markets and ship them to receiving traders in remote consuming areas throughout the country.

In addition, Ganaur has a close proximity to the Azadpur which is a market of National Importance. Around 30 per cent of the total inflow and 28 per cent of the total outflow of Azadpur market passes through this route which is expected to tap by IIHM, Ganaur on its way. Hence, Ganaur is a strategic location for setting up the India International Horticulture Market as the road load factor for Ganaur is very high.

The Azadpur market is handling approximately 42,37,000 MTs in an area of 78 acres, and hence is highly congested. The establishment of IIHM at Ganaur is intended to reduce congestion in Azadpur Market.  The identified site of Ganaur project is in vicinity to the major production areas of Haryana like Sonepat, Panipat, Rohtak, Jhajjar, etc.  (KNN/ES)
