The Shema Tera Shopping Center sits within the expansive Merkato, widely recognized as one of the largest open-air markets in Africa. Its name identifies its historical and commercial focus: in Amharic, shema refers to the traditional, hand-woven cotton cloth worn by many Ethiopians, and tera indicates a specialized area or row dedicated to a specific type of trade.
