The market is located at Keo Lom peak on Highway 12, which is convenient for people to trade goods, introduce and promote the local OCOP (one commune one product) products. The market is held every Saturday.

Keo Lom market was built with capital from the National Target Program to build new rural areas in the period of 2021-2025, with a total investment of 3 billion VND. The project was commenced on October 27, 2022 and completed on April 27, 2023, on a total area of 4,100m2.

The market consisted of a roofed area of 235m2. The stalls are arranged into different zones, such as the area for displaying and selling OCOP products, agricultural products, and handicrafts; the area for food stalls; the zone for introducing traditional crafts and culture of local ethnic groups; the outdoor area (selling livestock, poultry, plants, breeds...); and the zone for commercial stalls of local businesses and cooperatives.

Once the Keo Lom Market comes into operation, it is expected to attract people in the district and neighboring areas to come to exchange goods to serve the people's lives and socio-economic development. This is not simply a place to trade goods but also a place for tourists to visit and enjoy musical performances every Saturday, contributing to tourism development in Dien Bien Dong district.

On the occasion of the opening, the Keo Lom Market will open on 2 days (September 1 - 2) with more than 100 stalls serving the trading needs of people in Keo Lom commune and neighboring areas. Cultural activities, arts and traditional games of ethnic groups in Dien Bien Dong district will be organized during this time.
