Focussed on chefs!
Today’s fish is tomorrows dish, and, as seafood wholesalers, the community of chefs are the forefront of our business. We appreciate every requirement within the kitchen and throughout the catering industry. For this reason, we handpick the very best for our customers and do not supply to the general public. We focus on ensuring the very best quality and service to all our chefs, with no other distractions!
Over the years we have built long-standing relationships with many top chefs and establishments across the UK. We have the pleasure of supplying Michelin-stared restaurants, bars, gastro pubs, hotels, colleges, universities, sports and event stadiums, care homes and so much more. We also supply to independent customers as well as those with multiple sites throughout the UK.
We share the same vision as our customers, a passion for high quality fish, responsibly sourced and great tasting coastal seafood. However, the service we supply is also crucial in the process, so we appreciate every demand from our customers. From the need for great quality ingredients prepared to specification and served on time and all priced – we are here and ready at your service.
