Busan Cooperative Fish Market
Encyclopedia : B : BU : BUS : Busan Cooperative Fish Market
The Busan Cooperative Fish Market, or BCFM, is the largest fish market in South Korea. It adjoins the South Harbor in Busan. More than 30% of the country's fish production passes through the market. In recent years, a large percentage of the catch has been made up of yellowtail, due to warming waters in the Sea of Japan (East Sea). The market takes up 64,257 m², of which about 10% is a refrigerated working area.
The market first opened on November 1, 1963, at the present-day site of the Busan International Ferry Terminal. It moved to its present location in 1973.
