Used clothing market in Raqqa flourishes for its low prices

The used clothing market in Raqqa is one of the well-known markets that flourish every Friday, as the majority of the city’s people prefer it for its lower prices compared to the new clothes.

The residents of Raqqa believe that the market offers their needs at reasonable prices since they can’t afford to buy new clothes at high rates. The used clothing market is near Al-Bayda Park, and it was launched after the liberation of Raqqa city to meet the requirements of low-wage citizens who cannot buy new clothes.

The rise in the US dollar value against the Syrian Lira affects commodities in general, including clothes, consequently leading to the poor purchasing power of people earning less than $60 per month.
