Narita Wholesale Market

The Narita Wholesale Market (成田市公設地方卸売市場) is a public wholesale fish, fruit, and vegetable market in Narita, Chiba, Japan.

In 1974, Narita City opened the public wholesale market to meet the demand of a growing population resulting from the opening of Narita International Airport in 1978.

The market opens most mornings (except Sundays, holidays and some Wednesdays).

Most of the 200 shops in the market close by the early afternoon.

Reservations are required to observe the tuna auctions.
