Alternative Fish Products
Every now and then, a weather glitch or change in sea conditions can make fresh fish scarce. In those (ultra-rare) cases, we’ve got a great range of sea-frozen fish, smoked fish and frozen fish fillets.
Smoked and Frozen Fish Range
Smoked Fish
Fish processed from fresh by us (mainly Hoki and Ling) then naturally smoked and frozen. Great for fish pies and a variety of other recipes.
Sea Frozen Fish
Deep Sea varieties, such as Dory, Groper, Orange Roughy, snap frozen whole on the ships minutes after being caught, then thawed out and processed by us. This fish loses absolutely none of its quality or taste and we highly recommend this product.
Frozen Fillets
We also have access to export quality frozen fillets of most of our usual varieties. High in quality and taste, but less in appearance.
