There are mainly two markets. One is situated just before thebeach & another is situated beside the Rakhain Polly & it is called "Rakhain Women's market". About 35 shops are situated before the beach market on the two side of the road & about 20 shops are in Rakhain Women's Market. The size of every shop is small. Asthe market place is very near to the beach, so it is very much popular to the customers.
Most of the shops of the markets & most of the products of the shops are same. So we can divide the products mainly in 3 parts.
a. Clothes b. Shoes c. Show piece.
The main product of the shops is cloth. There are many types of cloths like shirt, t-shirt, bed cover, shawl etc. Winter clothes are very much popular to the visitors.

It looks very beautiful & among visitors it has great demand. Most of the products are produced in Myanmar. At first this products are came in Cox-bazar from Myanmar. Then it is sent to Kuakata. So normally price of the products are more than Cox-bazar. But in the winter season the local Rakhains produce some clothes. They use it & also sell it in the market. Various types of Barmiz shoes are also very much popular. Show pieces also come from Cox-bazar & some are local products. The price of the goods is not so high. But as the products bring from Cox-bazar, so the price of the goods is higher than Cox-bazar. Mainly all prices of the goods are in the customer budget. The financial position of the business is very good. Kuakata is a great tourist center in Bangladesh. A lot of visitors visit here every day. The business is mainly depending & based on the visitors. In the pick season most of the shop earns average 5000-7000tk every day. But in the off- season the income becomes half of this amount. |
