Buying frozen seafood commercially involves more than choosing a species. Importers and distributors need the right product format, size or grade, freezing method, packaging, order quantity and shipping arrangement.
Fresh Seafood Supply works with professional buyers sourcing frozen seafood in wholesale quantities for import, distribution, retail, foodservice and further processing.

These details help prevent misunderstandings between buyer and supplier and make it easier to prepare an accurate commercial quotation.
Product specifications vary, so request the current specification for the exact frozen seafood product you are interested in purchasing.
Packaging is an important part of commercial frozen seafood supply because products must remain protected through frozen storage, loading, international transportation and distribution.
The appropriate packaging depends on the seafood species, product format, buyer requirements and shipment configuration.
