Kilos market (livestock auction) has uniqueness since as a long serving market ;sells meat under trees / small mud butcheries and their meat is measured by eye observation and hand weighing by experienced butchers which gives equivalent measurement of 1kg meat as the weighing machines measurement hence attaining its name as Kilos market.
