Supply of fresh seafood from its own inshore ice-vessels as well as independently owned ice-vessels.
Supply of Greenshell Mussels from its own marine farms.
Modern land based processing facilities equipped with the latest technology.
State-of-the art facility for the process of hydrolysed liquid fish protein from fish waste.
A separate well equipped factory for the process of dietary supplements, which maintains a stringent quality control system based on HACCP principles.
All products are subject to daily quality assays and regular laboratory tests.
The company has a highly knowledgeable and experienced team of production, marketing, and administration personnel and is one of the largest employers in the Christchurch area.
Our aim is "not to be the biggest, but the best" at what we do.
