How it's used
This term is a direct translation from English and is primarily used in urban contexts where such markets are organized as special events. Unlike traditional wet markets, which are permanent fixtures in Hong Kong neighborhoods, these markets are often temporary and focus on organic or locally sourced produce. It is common to see this term used in marketing materials for weekend pop-up events.
