 Navotas Fish Port Complex
The Navotas Fish Port Complex (NFPC), the premier
fish center of the the Philippines and one of the largest in
Asia, is the first major fishing port and fish market complex
placed under the exclusive jurisdiction, control and supervision
of the Philippine Fisheries Development Authority (PFDA). It
is the traditional landing place of commercial fishing boats
operating in various fishing grounds in the Philippines. It is
situated on a 47.5 hectares reclaimed land at the Northeastern
section of Manila Bay.
The project spanned three years of construction
from August 1973 to August 1976 through a loan of more than Php
88 million from the Asian Development Bank (ADB).
Location
Located at the heart of Navotas
in the Northeastern section of Manila Bay, the NFPC can be reached
direct from the Rizal Park via the Roxas Boulevard Extension
(R10) which will eventually be extended to Bataan. The circumferential
road (C-3) coming from Sampaloc, Manila and passing through Caloocan
City ends directly in front of the main exit of the fish port.
NFPC, in fact, is centrally located within a five-kilometer radius
of the cities of Manila, Quezon, and Caloocan, and the towns
of Navotas and Malabon. Only 10 minutes away is Divisoria, the
country's premier bargain center.
Services
Market
and Harbor Operations
Market operations started on April 3, 1977 while harbor operations
commenced on January 15, 1977.
Before the construction of the fish
port complex, fishing boats achored some 1.5 kms. from the shore
and waited for three (3) days before the amphibian trucks could
take the first tubs from the boats and bring them to the fish
market. With the opening of the port, fish tubs are now directly
unloaded at the quayside alongside the new market halls.
The improved system and procedures for
harbor and market operations being implemented by the PFDA help
in the reduction of time required for fish and other aquatic
products to reach the consumers. Handling has also been considerably
improved resulting to better quality fish that reach the market
daily.
Marine
Industrial Estate
The PFDA has developed NFPC into a marine industrial complex
where portions not being used for fish landing and trading purposes
were leased to the private sector for fish canning, processing
and other related services. The agressive marketing of the port's
commercial and industrial area resulted in the lease of approximately
20 hectares of land to various fisheries and fisheries-related
industries.

Fish Port Complex |

1985 - The Iloilo Fish Port
Complex (IFPC) began its operations. Primarily, the IFPC catered
to the requirements of those engaged in the then booming prawn
industry in Western Visayas. With the slump in the industry,
the port now services the needs of those engaged in processing
other fishery/aquatic products for the export market. This is
aside from providing the post-harvest facilities to traditional
fishermen and fishing boat operators

The establishment of Zamboanga
Fish Port Complex (ZFPC) in Western Mindanao provided the fishing
industry in the region with a systematized fish marketing and
distribution system. It also supplemented current and future
infrastructure development programs that support the integration
of the fishing industry nationwide.
ZFPC is the second port complex
completed under the Nationwide Fishing Ports Package I, financed
by the Japanese Government through the Overseas Economic Cooperation
Fund.

Fish Port Complex |

The Davao Fish Port Complex
(DFPC) is the seventh commercial fish port to be operated and
managed by the Philippine Fisheries Development Authority (PFDA).
It is, however, the second major fishing port established in
Mindanao Area. This 4.5 hectare complex serves as a center for
the collection, processing, storage and packaging of fishery
and marine products for distribution to Davao City's area of
influence and to the export market.
Envisioned to be similar in
operations to that of an ordinary regional fish port which caters
to the needs of the local fishing industry, the DFPC has become
a major transshipment point and center of trade within the East
ASEAN Growth Area (EAGA). The modernization of commercial fishery
coupled with the required infrastructure is the country's commitment
to EAGA.
