The Municipality of Porto presents the 5th edition of “A banca vizinha não é melhor do que a minha", a competition that celebrates creativity, innovation, and excellence in stall presentation across the city’s markets and fairs. Open to traders and market operators, the initiative encourages participants to enhance their stalls through original concepts, attractive product displays, and sustainable, circular economy practices.

More than a competition, this initiative aims to strengthen local commerce, foster collaboration among economic operators, and highlight the role of markets as spaces of identity, community, and local development. During the evaluation period, visitors will also have the opportunity to support their favourite stalls by voting through a QR code displayed at each participating stand, with public voting contributing to the final score.

The best stalls will be recognised and awarded for their creativity, presentation quality, and commitment to sustainability.
