LATEST FISH LANDINGS

Peterhead Fish Market Information

Vessel landing times
Sunday 0600hrs to Monday 0600hrs
Tuesday to Friday 1200hrs – 0600hrs

1200hrs landing time is dependent on the auction floor being prepared in time following the previous sale. Although delays are not expected we ask that you have consideration if requested to wait until the floor is prepared. Landing slot allocation will not be affected during this period.

A daily 6500-box limit with space on the market floor allocated at 40%.

Vessels landing prawns and fish. Any boxes of prawns that are awaiting collection must be in the Greenhill section (old section) of the market. All boxes of prawns must be removed from the market before 0600hrs.

Private sales can be facilitated through the auction floor with prior arrangement.

All personnel on the auction floor must have a face covering along with the pre-approved PPE (hair covering, boots etc)

“Phase 1” restrictions which are:
• Physical distancing requirements in place.
• Frequent handwashing and hygiene measures for all.
• Cough etiquette is maintained.
• Face coverings in enclosed public spaces, including public transport.


As with all restrictions in place at this time we will continue to monitor the situation adjusting where necessary to ensure that our stakeholders receive the best possible service in the safest possible conditions. I trust you will continue to work alongside Peterhead Port Authority during these difficult times.
