Old Fish Market, Joydevpur

in Steem4Entrepreneurs25 days ago

Old Fish Market is known as one of the fish markets in Joydebpur city. Most people in Joydevpur buy their fish needs from here. This means that new fish are imported here every day and they are sold every day. This is a good market for getting fresh fish. The quality and price of the fish here is quite normal. There are multiple fish shops in this fish market. Buyers can buy fish of their choice according to their preferences and budget. Stay with me for more details about Old Fish Market.

Old Fish Market is open every day. However, it is open every day from 8 am to 12 pm. In just four hours, there is a lot of bustling trading at this fish market. Every shop here is affiliated with a specific association. Here, a fish seller pays a monthly fee for their designated space. A fishmonger is allotted a space measuring 8x6 feet in length and width. The fish seller pays a specified amount of fee per month to the owner for this specific location.

Let's go inside now. After entering, you will see that this fish market is located on the ground floor, covering a large area. There are at least 25/30 fish shops in this area. A separate space is designated for each shop. Anyway, the quality of the fish here is fresh. Most of the fish in the market were live and the price varied depending on the type of fish. You can check the price and buy at the fish market. The price of fish here is not fixed, you are free to bargain and buy fish if you want.

In the two pictures mentioned above, you are observing the scene at the fish market. Although the fish market was not very busy yet. Basically, the market is crowded with shoppers two hours after it starts. It was approximately 9:30 when I entered the market. And in half an hour, the fish market will be even more crowded. People from the city will come here with great curiosity to buy fresh fish.

Fishmongers import fish from different ponds every day. Therefore, the price of fish in this market is sold at a different price each day. If you want to buy good quality fish here, Bangladeshis can buy fish for 220 taka to 340 taka per kg. The price mentioned is only for Rui and Mrigel fish. However, the prices of other fish are more or less high here. There is a lighting system to present the fish beautifully and bring out their brilliance.

You know that the fish market is always wet. That means water is constantly being released here. Therefore, good arrangements have been made here to drain excess water. Excess water from the fish shop goes directly into the sewage drain instead of accumulating on the floor. This keeps the fish market clean and creates a good environment for customers to move around.

The atmosphere of this fish market is very natural. I believe the cleanliness here and the excellent management for the good presentation of the fish will attract you. There is no shortage of fish here. If you want, you can also get fresh water fish directly from here. However, their price is several times higher than pond-farmed fish. Because free-water fish are healthier and tastier. Anyway, some fish decoration photography has been added to the image mentioned below.

Another big advantage for buyers here is the fish cutting management. If you come to this market to buy fish, you can get the fish you purchase cut here at a very low price. There are sufficient manpower employed to cut fish in this market. Here are 5 sharp weapons for cutting fish. Two people are actively involved with each sharp weapon for cutting fish. One cuts the fish and the other separates the scales from the fish.

All in all, you only have to pay 10 taka per kg for cutting your fish. To me, the price for fish cutting here seemed very limited and normal. However, due to the facilities for cutting fish here, buyers feel more comfortable purchasing fish from here. You can see the fish cutting process in the picture below.

Now I have calculated the price per kilogram of some well-known and popular fish in the list mentioned below. Look at the table below to understand the price of fish.

There are also other fish here that are sold at very affordable prices. One notable sentence is that fish purchased here are not returnable. A good review and positive feedback about Old Fish Market.
