Fishmongers

Fruit and vegetable sellers, along with fishmongers, try to drum up business in Istanbul’s old Kadikoy market. But trade is slow. Most people just look and walk on.

Roughly 50 meters away, past the vegetable section, fishmongers are scaling their produce. Demand in fish has gone up, and has created a shortage. Wholesale fish prices have risen by about 30 percent.

Traditional stores, such as greengrocers and fishmongers, are becoming less and less popular due to the rise of supermarkets and other mass retailers.
