Freeport, Grand Bahama - Management at the Port Lucaya Marketplace
have pulled out all of the stops to attract last minute shoppers before the
Christmas holidays. From window displays decked with perfumes, jewelry and
other wonderful holiday items, to sidewalk racks filled with pocket tempting
deals; merchants are stocked and ready to receive and please customers.
Noting that parking at the
Marketplace has been a challenge, management at the Port Lucaya Marketplace has
expanded the customer parking area, to ensure that customers will have
easy access and a pleasant experience when visiting the Marketplace.
Entertainment and
Marketing Coordinator for the Marketplace Ms. Karen Ferguson-Bain expressed, “When you think of
fine dining, shopping or family oriented entertainment, the Port Lucaya
Marketplace is one of the first places that come to mind, but the issue of
parking also accompanies this thought,” Ferguson-Bain commented.
“As the final days before the Christmas Holiday approaches, we wanted to
make coming to Port Lucaya a pleasant experience for everyone by extending
parking to the far Western side of the Marketplace.
The new expanded parking area is intended to accommodate tenants and employees, so that the immediate parking facilities in the Western and Eastern lots can be utilized by customers.

continued. As a result of the new parking structure, customers now have ample
parking facilities, with access to the Western parking area near Domino’s
Pizza and to the Eastern parking area at the rear and to the right of the Oasis
Drug Store.
During the final days before
Christmas, store owners have extended their operating hours to accommodate the
late evening shoppers. Customers are encouraged to check out the deals being
offered at the Marketplace as most storeowners are hosting in-house promotions,
where with a minimum purchase, customers become eligible to win prizes like
matching Movado watch sets, a new 2011 vehicle, a trip for two to London and
many other prizes.
