At a cost of K1.5 million, the fish market is a proper facility for artisanal fishermen to also sell their daily catch.
The crowded Lae Main Market on Friday had the bottom part of it reserved for the official opening of the new fish market.
The new market is located right at the end corner of the main market.
Fisheries Minister and Member for Kabwum, Patrick Basa, cut the ribbon to open the doors of the fish market.
The fish market comes with an ice maker, a blast chiller and a storage container.
