The Haochi Street project, covering an area of 3,800 square meters, commenced partial operations on Aug 7 and is set for an official grand opening on Sept 20. The street has already completed all leasing arrangements, and 63 shops are set to open in total.
Transformed from Minsheng Road's vegetable market, the street has set certain standards for attracting investment and ensuring the quality and growth of culinary offerings within. The street has 24-hour security personnel and dedicated cleaning staff to provide visitors with a comfortable dining environment and ensure quality services for merchants.
The street is divided into outer and inner sections. The outer section, along Minsheng Road and its surrounding alleys, features specialty dining establishments, while the inner street focuses on local snacks and regional specialties. For customer convenience, a public dining area accommodating 550 patrons simultaneously has been set up.
Despite not being fully operational yet, the street has already experienced a bustling influx of visitors. Rough estimates suggest an average daily footfall of nearly 17,000 visits since Aug 7.
