5 October: official opening of Mercabarna-flor and Mercademostraciones
Flower-sector professionals have a rendezvous at Mercabarna-flor on 5 October. This date has been earmarked not only for the official opening of the new Mercabarna-flor that has been in operation since 1 September, but also for the 25th annual Mercademostraciones show.
Florists preview Mercabarna-flor
On 21 July, some 30 florists visited the Mercabarna-flor building site. Led by Mercabarna-flor manager, Jaume Esteve, the expedition set out by coach from the temporary Market in Mercabarna and made the 10-minute journey to Mercabarna-flor.
Willy Müller: “The major challenge has been to join different sectors in a single venue”
In 1992, Willy Müller (Argentina, 1961) opened his first architect’s office in Barcelona. Now, 16 years later, he has an office in Brazil and works on projects in Russia, Mexico and Tunisia. He now enjoys an international projection in which, Mr Müller assures us, Mercabarna has played a vital role. Designing first the Green Point and now Mercabarna-flor has enabled him to experiment with new models of architecture of a major international scope.
Jordi Plana: “Some people travel to see a market like this and now we’ve got it right here!”
Effort, excitement and optimism: according to Jordi Plana, these are the words that best describe the atmosphere of the new Mercabarna-flor since it threw open its doors on 1 September. Flower business owners are embarking on this new phase in a tailored centre with a greater product offer and extended business hours and services.
