A part of the agriculture producer around Hakodate is pressed need of realization for after the war and begins street hawker of vegetables. At that time, there were no organized distribution routes and therfore the market was considered a part of black market. When there weren't morning market around the station, our morning market was at the now NTT Hakodate office site. Outside street market style was always pressured to stop from the problem of the location regarding hygiene and transportation. We received help of cooperation of association of crossing the sea farm co-op society and borrowed land of Shinonome-cho telephone exchange office, and producer and consumers bought and sold spontaneously. From this time, market was created.
From the Hakodate neighboring, stallholder, things named military unit hard gathered, and function of market fell into extended confusion. Therefore, we established the governing board in association of crossing the sea farm co-op society and dealt with management administration. Gradually, the market was accepted by the citizens.
