Adana heat impact on fish sales

Overview

High temperatures in Adana have led to a significant decline in fish sales. Local fishmongers report a drop of 80% to 90% during the summer months, partly due to the consumer perception that fish is not suitable for hot weather.

To prevent spoilage caused by the heat, vendors are utilizing continuous amounts of ice to maintain freshness. Available varieties are limited to species such as sea bass and sea bream, with prices reaching 500 lira per kilogram for sea bass and 350 lira for sea bream.
