MARKETS
Marketing is a way of life in Hong Kong, so it's not surprising that market stalls abound in the urban areas where almost every conceivable household item can be purchased. There are seven wholesale fish markets in the territory and two wholesale vegetable markets, one for local produce and the other for imported goods. These wholesale markets supply the multitude of markets, market areas, licensed hawkers and other retail outlets. The Urban Services Department controls 41 public all-purpose retail markets and one wholesale market. The department is also engaged in a com- prehensive rebuilding and reprovisioning programme, which saw the opening of two new markets in 1974. So for the shopper who prefers a stall to a supermarket there is plenty of scope in Hong Kong.
