JAKARTA - The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) has built a 300-ton capacity cold storage to maintain the quality of fish caught by fishermen.
"The construction of cold storage is in progress, and it is all from the Central Government," said Head of the Fisheries and Marine Service of Indramayu Regency, Edi Umaidi, quoted from Antara, Monday, May 23.
Edi said that the construction of the frozen fish warehouse had begun at the end of January 2022 around the Karangsong Fish Auction Place (TPI), Indramayu Regency.
Still, Edi said, the frozen warehouse storage capacity can accommodate hundreds of tons of fish.
"The storage capacity reaches 300 tons of fish. The budget is all from the center," he said.
Edi said that the construction of the frozen warehouse is expected to maintain the quality of the fish caught by the fishermen.
Not only that, fishermen can unload faster and don't have to wait long to queue at the TPI.
"If there is cold storage, the quality of fish can be better, and fishermen don't have to queue to unload their catch," he concluded.
