Versova, Mumbai- 400061, India Email: pankajmugaonkar@gmail.com* Abstract Retailing is final step in the distribution of produce. It is last link in the supply chain connecting the bulk produces of commodities to the final consumers. Fish finds its place in the diversity of products retailed in the market. Structure of fish marketing has been changing considerably since the days of technological improvements of fishing industry. In the recent years, transformation of unorganized fish retail marketing in to organized fish retailing has been noticed in India through entry of private retailer giants such as Spencer’s, Starbazar, More, etc. organized system demands the professionals for operation of the system. It is perceived, that it gives equal opportunity for both the gender to work in the system, the reality may be otherwise. With this background a study was done to analyze gender equity in terms of participation, in organized retail fish market vis a vis traditional fish market. Study was performed in one of the important metros, Mumbai India. It was found that women’s participation in the organized retail market (Spinach, Spencer, Foodland, Star bazaar) was limited to as fish cutter and fish dresser and only few women were involved in this work. This was compared as to the traditional fish marketing in two main fish markets namely versova fish market and Savarkar fish market, Mumbai. It was found that in these two markets, majority of fish cutters and fish dressers were females. It was interesting to find that more than half of the women working in the traditional fish markets were ready to work in organized fish retail outlets. Women who did not show interest in working in organized retail markets owned their own stall in the fish markets and performed the work of cutter and fish dresser and they earn reasonable profit. The study has revealed that participation of women in the organized fish retail outlet was very limited and interventions should be made to increase their participation so as to ensure gender equity.
