A rapid market assessment in September 2026 found that while most markets in flood-affected areas are trading, their recovery is inconsistent. Out of 117 traders surveyed across eight municipalities, 64 reported fully operational markets, 43 indicated partial operation, and 10 markets remained closed.

The fragility of supply capacity in flood-affected markets poses a significant concern for ongoing recovery efforts. Humanitarian funding is well-resourced, meeting most requirements.

The uneven market recovery suggests potential challenges for affected populations in accessing essential goods and services. There are nearly 14,000 internally displaced persons in the country.

The specific impacts of market closures and partial operations on household food security and livelihoods are not yet detailed.
