Graded seafood
for supermarkets.
Samaki Direct supplies supermarkets with whole fish and seafood, graded to agreed size bands — chilled on ice for the fish counter and frozen whole for the freezer aisle.
Consistent product for your shelves
Retail needs consistency: the same grade, size bands and packing every delivery. We agree those specifications up front and grade to them.
Seafood is delivered whole, on ice in insulated boxes or frozen in cartons.

Fresh, chilled or frozen
Supplied on ice and never frozen, for cooking soon after delivery. Species and sizes follow what the coast is landing.
Homes, restaurants, hotel kitchens
Kept cold on crushed ice in insulated boxes from handling to delivery, so it holds its condition between catch and kitchen.
Hotels, supermarkets, wholesale
Frozen whole, individually (IQF) or in blocks, for stock, distribution and export.
Supermarkets, distributors, export
Every quote and order states which one you are getting, so you always know how your seafood was handled.
