Giuseppe's Market at Samuels Seafood Co.

Giuseppe’s Market and its sister shop, Ippolito’s Seafood, trace their roots back to 1919, when Giuseppe Ippolito began selling seafood from a pushcart in South Philly. By 1929, his dream became reality with the opening of Ippolito’s Seafood—now Philadelphia’s oldest seafood shop. Today, Giuseppe’s carries on that legacy, offering the city’s freshest fish and shellfish, sourced globally and locally, and butchered in-house daily. Backed by Samuels Seafood’s expertise, our team is proud to serve chefs and home cooks alike. We now offer over 100 seafood varieties, plus fresh produce, pantry staples, and chef-prepped meals.

Asian grocery stores and supermarkets stock ingredients, snacks and household goods that general American supermarkets often do not carry, organized by category rather than by country of origin in most stores. Produce and live or fresh seafood sections are usually at the back or side of the store, and weekend mornings bring the largest crowds and freshest restock. Many larger Asian supermarkets include a hot deli or food court counter selling prepared meals by the pound or as fixed plates, useful for a quick lunch while shopping. Labels are frequently bilingual or untranslated, so store staff can usually help locate a specific ingredient if you ask. Cash, cards and mobile pay are all commonly accepted at larger chains; smaller specialty shops may be cash-preferred.
