Premier Gladys Berejiklian said construction on site would create 700 construction jobs and more than 700 ongoing jobs once the new markets open in 2024.
“Building infrastructure will be key to our economic recovery out of this pandemic,” Ms Berejiklian said.
“Not only will the new Sydney Fish Market continue to be the beating heart of our State’s seafood industry, it will also continue to lead the way as one of Australia’s leading tourist destinations.”
The new building will include a variety of fishmongers, restaurants, cafés, bars, and specialty food retailers in a four-storey market hall setting, as well as new public promenades and a ferry wharf. Early works for the Sydney Fish Markets are expected to commence within the next eight weeks.
Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism, and Western Sydney, Stuart Ayres said visitor numbers to the market are expected to double over the next 10 years, from three million to six million each year. Read the full media release.
