Mercado de Campo de Ourique

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable company. While a "market" in the sense of an area where several merchants gather to sell their wares might be notable merely for its prolonged existence, this entity appears to be a garden-variety supermarket, with no assertion of notability.

 * Comment: No opinion yet about this topic but being mentioned in a bunch of notable travel guides     mean that there are some, probably Portuguese, RS about the subject. Someone who speaks the language might be able to help with that. Regards  So  Why  22:45, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

 * comment (leaning on keep) It is a mildly known landmark in Lisboa (I think I've never went there, even when I lived there, but it is a familiar name). It is not a "garden-variety supermarket" as the nominator says. It is a Market (place) from the 1930's (according to the one source in the article and the building look like being from that era) which was recuperated and re-purposed to be something in between a market and a mall, in 2013-11-26 (announcement at the city of Lisboa site). It is owned by the city, and run by a company (MCO - most likely short for the market's name) which is not clear from the source I read (market's page on the city of Lisboa's site) if it is private or public (likely private, but the source for that is my memory and my knowledge of the country, both not very reliable :-). The official page is under (re?)construction, who knows since when... Overall, the building alone for the architecture and history, plus the fact that there is something there at all (garden-variety or not) is probably notable.
