Ten thousand people earn a living in this fishing port which forms its own city section with its many factories. |
 The auction halls, where the fresh fish discharged during the night is put up for action early in the morning, have a length of almost 1 km. All landings, which are being offered in many thousands of cases, are sold within a few hours. |
 The trawler factory ships discharge their deep-frozen products prepared aboard directly into cold and deep-freeze stores set up right next to the pier. Deep-freezing is the new pace maker for opening up new outlets. |
