The Sohiong stall at Shillong’s market ran out of stock, as the venue highlighted a range of locally sourced produce from across Meghalaya.
Shillong, Meghalaya – Vendors at the city’s central market reported that the Sohiong stall exhausted its inventory within hours, underscoring strong demand for regional farm goods. The stall, known for offering a variety of fresh produce, attracted shoppers seeking authentic Meghalaya items.
The market, a key distribution point for farmers across the state, continues to serve as a conduit between rural producers and urban consumers. By aggregating vegetables, fruits, and other farm products, it enables smallholders to reach a broader customer base without intermediaries.
Local agricultural officials noted that such sell‑out events signal healthy consumer interest and can boost farmer incomes. They urged continued support for market infrastructure to sustain the flow of indigenous produce and promote Meghalaya’s agrarian heritage.
