Frozen Red Snapper Farm Raised
Maricultured red snapper from clean ocean cages. Whole round GGS fillet and slice, IQF, HACCP and BAP certified, 10kg carton, MOQ 1 x 20ft FCL.
What This Product Is
Our red snapper is maricultured in sea based cages in clean controlled ocean waters rather than wild caught, which is what makes a stable year round programme possible. It has a delicate mildly sweet flavour and a firm flaky texture, and it is frozen immediately after harvest so the colour of the skin, which is the main reason buyers pay a premium for snapper, stays intact through the cold chain.
- HACCP
- BAP
- ISO
- FDA registered
