Yau Ma Tei Fruit Market (Chinese: 油麻地果欄) is a wholesale fruit market in Yau Ma Tei, Kowloon, Hong Kong. The market is known as gwo laan (果欄) in Cantonese. gwo (果) means fruit while laan (欄) means wholesale market, which handles over 80% of the fruit wholesale in Hong Kong.
The market was founded in 1913 as a food wholesale market for both Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. It consists of several blocks of one or two storey brick and stone buildings, while some of the buildings still preserve some Pre-World War II signboards on the outer walls.
The busiest hours of Yau Ma Tei Fruit Market are 4 to 6 o'clock in the morning, lorries and carts deliver boxes of fruit in and out of the market.
Besides wholesale, Yau Ma Tei Fruit Market also has a retailing area, it is always crowded with fruit lovers on Saturday and Sunday since the fruits here are fresher and cheaper than the other place.
The name of the market was originally Government Vegetables Market (政府蔬菜市場) which sold fruit and vegetables. With the opening of another separate vegetables wholesaling market, the market has operated as a specialist fruit wholesaling market.
