Current Businessshops. His customers developed such a taste for Richard’s delicious produce; he quickly had to increase his single van to an entire fleet.Today we are growing even further with the purchase of Wraggs Seafoods in Leeds, creating an additional depot in the North. It has already increased our productivity and has enabled us to provide more fish to our customers even further afield.

The Leeds base is still working under the name Wraggs as their reputation is so good in the Leeds

area. Back in Newton Aycliffe we have increased our office size and have grown our sales team to focus on developing new business.

Industry News - blogWe have recently been blogging on our new website about sustainable quota changes - a subject we find of great interest due to our commitment to sustainable and quality fish products.

What We Do Best

For a sneak preview….Why Celebrity Chefs should stiCk to tV and leaVe sustainability issues to us…. In chip shop queues and fish restaurants across the country a dangerous epidemic is spreading. It started in TV land and has quickly worked its way through the general public and continues to spread its reach with no signs of slowing. It is in fact, the misconception that cod – the battered British favourite – is in short supply and that eating it is an ecological crime. Read more at www.collinsseafoods.co.uk/news for the full blog.

The entire Frozen At Sea Fish process happens within 2-6 hours of the trawl being caught.

The trawlers are equipped with special sized nets that let out the smaller, immature fish.Once on board, the live trawled fish are transferred into holding tanks.Within 1 hour the fish has been hauled, gutted, bled and put in ice.Fish are covered in ice immediately to maintain peak freshness. Once filleted, all produce is trimmed and graded, with only the superior fillets being selected for our needs and frozen.The product is then stored in a temperature controlled hold.
