Yesterday several of you mentioned that you thought the name 'Sanitary Fish Market (FYI it is also a restaurant)' was rather odd.
As a child, it was my families favorite Seafood Restaurant. Here is some info on why it was named Sanitary Fish Market and Restaurant
The Sanitary Fish Market & Restaurant in Morehead City, NC, got its name because founders Tony Seamon and Ted Garner wanted to signal its cleanliness, a contrast to typical messy fish markets, and because the building's owner required they keep it neat and not sell alcohol, ensuring a family-friendly, "sanitary" environment.
Details of the Name's Origin
- Cleanliness Promise: In 1938, when they opened there were 12 stools. Most fish markets were considered dirty; Seamon and Garner chose the name to assure customers of their commitment to hygiene and a wholesome atmosphere.
- Building Owner's Rules: The owner of the rented space, Charles Wallace, stipulated that no beer or wine be sold and the premises remain clean, reinforcing the "Sanitary" theme.
- Family-Friendly: The name was a deliberate marketing choice to attract families, distinguishing them from other establishments and projecting compliance with the owner's strict rules.

I would say Mr. Seamon & Mr. Garner were marketing geniuses to advertise their place of business as “sanitary”! 😉 Congrats Indiana Hoosiers on winning the CFB National Championship!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a perfectly sane explanation
