Toyosu

So is there a particular fish market or fish agent that you deal with regularly?

Yeah, our main market is Toyosu Market in Japan.

That's the largest market in Japan, I mean, in the whole world.

But we also have some connection from a direct flight from Hokkaido.

Right, Tsukiji.

The transition from the historic, organically chaotic Tsukiji Market to the new, heavily modernized, sanitized Toyosu facility faced an incredibly similar, highly contentious relocation conflict over space, rent, and modernization.

The architecture completely changed, but they kept the exact same pre-dawn auction hours.

The city's logistical needs overrode everything else.
