Hachinohe City Central Wholesale Market is a public trading centre for vegetables, fruit and flowers in Aomori Prefecture. Its administrative address is Kawaragi, Kamisai 7-4. The city describes a supply role covering Hachinohe and the surrounding northern Tลhoku area. Agricultural buyers should identify this particular facility rather than confuse it with the port and fish-related markets also associated with Hachinohe. An initial enquiry should state the department responsible for the intended product.
The prefectural compilation for the end of March 2025 reports an 88,472 mยฒ site and 7,821 mยฒ of wholesale trading floors across the produce and flower departments. Floor area measures infrastructure, not annual sales volume. The daily bulletin dated 29 October 2026 includes daikon, carrots, cabbage, apples and bananas. Some lines distinguish varieties, origins and package units, all of which matter when comparing a publication with a supplier's commercial offer. The presence of a line in one bulletin does not guarantee availability on a later day.
A buyer should establish access through a wholesaler or intermediary instead of assuming that public ownership gives everyone unrestricted auction access. State the product in Japanese or include a photograph, and specify grade, weight and delivery date. Apple varieties and sizes should be separated because an overall category average can conceal material quality differences. For root vegetables, confirm whether the goods are washed and how soil and packaging are treated in the declared weight. Agree whether a sample represents the whole lot and how discrepancies will be recorded.
A seller should first identify a receiving business in the appropriate department and agree consignment acceptance. Useful information includes sorting standards, delivery frequency, farm or packhouse identification and complaint handling. For goods originating outside Japan, the presence of an imported product in a bulletin does not establish that the market itself performs customs clearance. Define the roles of importer and wholesaler separately. Confirm trading days and unloading times so that a vehicle does not arrive during a closure or outside the recipient's receiving window.
Expected supply is not completed sales volume, and a quotation attached to a 10 kg package is not a one-kilogram price. A procurement calculation still needs the individual counterparty's terms, freight and returnable-packaging costs. The market department telephone is +81 178-28-8888. When archiving observations, retain date, variety and unit alongside the number so that later comparisons remain meaningful.
