History

Founding story and development:
- The “New Market” concept in Klaipėda has historical roots as a developed marketplace distinct from the older market quarters, serving as a central hub for daily trade.
- In the early post-Soviet era (1990s), market operations in Lithuanian cities were reorganized, with dedicated operating companies formed to manage assets, leases, and facility upgrades. UAB „Naujasis turgus“ is understood to be one such operator for the Klaipėda market complex.
- Over time, the market complex expanded and modernized its halls (notably fish and meat sections) to comply with food safety, hygiene, and EU standards, and to improve customer experience.
- Periodic renovations and layout adjustments have been undertaken to improve vendor conditions, introduce refrigeration and sanitation upgrades, and enhance traffic and accessibility.

Key milestones:
- Establishment as a UAB entity (exact incorporation date to be confirmed).
- Modernization waves aligning with EU hygiene rules for meat and fish retailing.
- Ongoing community integration via local events, fairs, and seasonal markets.
