Mercalgeciras is a wholesale complex in the La Menacha industrial area, 11204 Algeciras. The company was established in 2002; its operator describes ownership as 95% Mercasa and 5% municipal. Fish and seafood form the main documented trading sector, while the premises offer also includes modules associated with fruit and vegetables. Users should distinguish active trading companies from available property and transport-support services. A vacant unit advertised for lease is not evidence that a particular commodity is currently on sale.
Mercasa's profile lists a total estate area of 31,019 m², 14 businesses and annual fish and seafood throughput of 1,447 tonnes, without an observation year. The operator describes more than 20,000 m² of developed land and approximately 5,000 m² of buildings. These measures cover different things and should not be treated as competing estimates of the same area. Likewise, the fish-sector throughput figure does not measure every possible product traded within the complex and says nothing about today's availability of individual species.
A fish buyer should agree species, size, preparation, temperature and the basis for net weight, including whether ice or packaging is excluded. The exact product form is particularly important for seafood. The operator lists ice facilities, vehicle weighing and heavy-vehicle parking. These are useful elements of the site's infrastructure, but their presence does not confirm that a service has been reserved for a particular consignment. Collection time and handling responsibilities still need to be agreed with the counterparty before transport is dispatched.
A seller can start by contacting a company active in the appropriate assortment or asking management about leasing conditions. A proposal should identify origin, delivery frequency, packaging, documentation and refrigeration requirements. It is sensible to agree who performs acceptance checks and who remains responsible for rejected goods. The operator's reference to round-the-clock parking does not establish round-the-clock sales, warehouse receiving or staffing. A driver arriving outside the receiving company's agreed window may therefore need a separate arrangement.
The links support enquiries about companies, services and contacts; an actual price requires a defined product and delivery date. The network profile gives telephone +34 956 669 947. When comparing offers from different ports or wholesale centres, separate the commodity price from transport, ice, packaging and transshipment costs. This produces a more useful estimate of the total purchasing or delivery cost than comparing headline prices quoted on incompatible weight or service terms.
