Noryangjin Fisheries Wholesale Market

Noryangjin Fisheries Market, which began in 1927 at Uiju-ro near Seoul Station, boasts a long history of over 90 years and is the largest inland fisheries wholesale market in Korea. In 1971, a wholesale market was newly built in Noryangjin, and in 2002, the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives (Suhyup) took over the market to promote fishermen's income and the development of the fisheries industry. Through the Noryangjin Fisheries Market modernization project, it was reborn as a representative fisheries wholesale market in Korea where distribution and culture coexist. Occupying 50% of the transaction volume in the capital area, Noryangjin Fisheries Wholesale Market handles approximately 250 to 300 tons of seafood daily. Since seafood prices are determined by the volume arriving that day, it is advisable to check the auction prices on the website; retail prices are about 10 to 20% higher than auction prices. In Noryangjin Fisheries Market, where wholesale and retail are mixed, the auction starting at 1 a.m. offers many spectacles. In particular, the live fish auction held at 3 a.m. provides a glimpse of the lively early morning market, invigorating the spirit of life.
