Fagatogo Market

Fagatogo Market is a market in the downtown Fagatogo area of Pago Pago, the capital of American Samoa. The market opened in 2010 as a market for farmers and fishermen to sell fruits, vegetables and fish.[1] Souvenirs are often sold here when cruise ships are in town, and there’s often live music and entertainment at the market.[2] The main bus terminal in Pago Pago is located behind Fagatogo Market.[3] It is the center of Pago Pago, and sits next-door to Fagatogo Square Shopping Mall. Mount 'Alava, the canneries in Atu'u, Rainmaker Mountain, and Pago Pago Harbor are all visible from the market.[4]
