We are a Premium Seafood wholesaler based out of London specialising in the procurement and sales of seafood to the Food service sector.

Established for a number of years, we have a fantastic heritage which, as experts in our field, has led us to develop a fantastic reputation with the sector.

Our product range is extensive and of the highest quality – resulting in us being the chosen seafood supplier to many high end hotels, restaurants and gastro pubs, particularly across the Greater London area.

Our purchasing team is well connected within seafood markets and we are able to provide agile service and delivery alongside competitive pricing.

This includes gastro pubs, restaurants and hotel customers.

The contact level is varied and can include chefs, buyers and owners.

This is a fantastic position for a candidate with a passion for food/seafood who enjoys working with customers of the highest calibre in their field.

• Experience in selling Seafood solutions is of particular interest
