What Wikipedia says

Wet market is a regional English term for a marketplace, also called a public market or a traditional market, that sells fresh foods, such as meat, fish, and produce, and other consumption-oriented perishable goods in a non-supermarket setting, as distinguished from "dry markets" that sell durable goods, such as fabrics, kitchenwares and electronics.
