Wholesale Seafood


Seafood is one of the most natural and loved foods in the United States and around the world. It is also one of the most protected foods in the world with 75% of fisheries sustainably managed. Before purchasing seafood for your store, restaurant or food stand, it's important to know a few things about seafood.

Offer healthy, delicious seafood to your customers and patrons by offering some of the most popular seafood products, become an expert at spotting freshness and quality and find seafood distributors and negotiate for the best price on wholesale seafood.

1. Offer the most popular, fresh seafood products to your clients to tantilize their tastebuds.

2. Spot fresh, high-quality seafood that will impress your customers and keep them coming back for more.

3. Find seafood distributors who will give you the best deal.

Offer the most popular seafood products

There is a large variety of seafood readily available to the average restaurateur. Among the most popular are shrimp, crab, tuna, cod, salmon, scallops, clams, crayfish, lobster and mussels. For the more exotic palate find octopus, squid (calamari), caviar and exotic fishes like shark. Decide on the seafood you are going to offer based on the theme of your restaurant, your budget for seafood imports and your local variety.

Spot fresh, high-quality seafood when selecting what to buy for your customers

For the freshest quality seafood available, shop at a local fish market if you live in a city with one. Get there early, as the boats come in before dawn. Seafood should never actually smell like fish; it should have a slightly sweet sea smell. The skin on fish should be firm and the eyes bright, not cloudy. For shellfish, look for bright colors and no visible damage to the shell.

Find seafood distributors and get the best deal

Shop seasonally for the best value and to offer your patrons a fresh seafood experience. They will also appreciate the variety in the menu from season to season. There are many seafood importers, seafood exporters and seafood wholesalers, as well as fish markets from which to choose.

  • Build a strong relationship with your fish importers for great deals, fast service and exclusive information.
