Abstract: Throughout history, humans have faced various infectious diseases that caused numerous global pandemics like the covid-19 virus which caused the recent pandemic. It made the world suffer for two years, from 2020 to 2021. As there was no medicine or vaccine for it, the social distance was the only option to control its spreading. So, Bangladesh government declared a lockdown to control this virus. Still couldn't stop this virus from spreading because some of the amenities couldn't be shut down: one of these amenities is food that people buy from the raw food market. The Raw food market must be kept open to fulfill people's basic food needs. As most of the existing food market is not designed in a process to keep social distancing, the raw food market was one of the places where covid-19 spreads. So, some solutions should be needed for the future as there is a chance of this kind of outbreak again. This article suggests places where the existing raw food market can be shifted during the pandemic to secure social distancing. Three markets of Sylhet town were taken for the study. This article also suggests how the place will be selected for the market. The School field was found to be the suitable place for it.
