Doha, May 13 (QNA) - Ministry of Social Development and Family (MSDF) launched the "Old Market Bazaar" at Tawar Mall as part of the "Home Grown" initiative aimed at supporting productive families and strengthening the presence of local products in the domestic market.

Running through the end of June, the event features 10 family-run projects showcasing handmade crafts, perfumes, gifts, clothing, and food products, reflecting Qatar's growing push to empower homegrown entrepreneurship and sustainable economic participation.

Director of Family Empowerment at the ministry Buthaina Al Obaidly said the initiative forms part of broader efforts to build a stronger support system for productive families, enhance economic and social empowerment, and deepen partnerships with the private sector and civil society in line with Qatar’s 2025–2030 development strategy.
