Sendai City Central Wholesale Market — Honjo is the main municipal wholesale site at 4-3-1 Oroshimachi, Wakabayashi-ku, Sendai. Separate flower and meat-market locations are excluded even where they appear within the same administrative structure or shared information service. For purchasers, specifying Honjo helps identify the correct facility and avoids confusing a collection or delivery address with another part of the city's market system. Institutional grouping should not be mistaken for a single physical location.
The overview dated 31 December 2025 gives Honjo a site area of 180,657 m² and building area of 91,645 m². The produce report for 29 October 2026 records 474 tonnes of vegetables and 80 tonnes of fruit, totalling 554 tonnes. This is a single-day observation, not an average day or annual throughput. Multiplying it by calendar days would be unjustified because seasonality and actual operating days can materially change trading volumes.
The city provides a price-report index in PDF and CSV, supporting both quick reference and further analysis. Produce and fish have separate reports. Examples include daikon radish, carrots, cabbages, leafy vegetables, citrus and bananas; the fish sector includes tuna, salmon, mackerel and shellfish. A report's heading and unit remain part of the observation and should be retained when extracting data.
A buyer should identify the appropriate wholesaler or intermediary and establish access to the intended purchasing channel. An enquiry should state quality, origin, package weight and collection date. A supplier should discuss acceptance, grading, documentation and settlement, particularly where an intermediary is involved. For fish, comparability also depends on fresh or frozen condition and preparation; a species name alone is not a complete commercial specification. These details help connect a statistical quotation with the goods that the recipient can actually use or resell.
Their fixed addresses can later contain newer bulletins, so historical work should preserve the observation date. Published prices neither reserve goods nor establish that any purchaser can trade directly through every channel. The administration's telephone number is +81 22 232 8111. Before arranging transport, confirm the calendar, receiving or collection position and documentation required of the particular participant. The reports are a useful information source, while the operational transaction still requires agreement with the counterparty.
