Fulton Fish Market
On November 14, 2005, after 180 years of operation in South Manhattan, the Fulton Fish Market which is the largest seafood wholesalers in the country, relocated its operations to the Hunts Point Food Distribution Center in the Bronx to an indoor fully refrigerated HAACP facility - The New Fulton Fish Market. The 400,000 square foot facility constructed at a cost of over $86,000,000, houses 37 seafood wholesale businesses. These businesses offer the freshest and most diverse selection of seafood combined with competitive pricing and year round availability. Wholesalers, seafood retailers, supermarkets, discerning restaurateurs and customers from around the country, purchase fresh and frozen seafood daily.
The New Fulton Fish Market is located in the heart of the Bronx within the Hunts Point Food Distribution Center.

I, too, grew up in New York City, although my borough was Brooklyn. Every Friday, my father would stop at our neighborhood fish market to buy fresh fish---He thought that fish bought on the next day was most definitely not fresh. I never had fish from the Fulton Fish Market, but just hearing its name takes me back to my childhood, because it's practically synonymous with NYC. I have a confession to make, though---I live in Massachusetts now, with a die-hard Patriots fan, so I want New England to win the Super Bowl. I'm so sorry..........
