Large stocks

Our stocks make us unique, for all parties in the chain. International fi shing companies like to workwith us, because we can take the full catch or production.

Local processors

We import all of our fish directly into the Netherlands. Through our partners in Murmansk and via other import channels, trucks and containers full of single frozen cod products arrive on a daily basis.

Reliable partners

Our way of working makes us a trustworthy partner for suppliers as well as for customers. With honest and transparent business , we build on long term relationships that are based on trust and the best available quality.

Frozen fish, fresh mentality

Without realising it, global fish lovers daily enjoy our kibbeling, plaice, cod or other fish products. Sea Frozen supplies international retailers, wholesalers, food service and processors from its hometown Urk.

We take a lot of work out of their hands and deliver the best fish at the right price. With our pro-active method we conquer a traditional world. “Frozen fish, fresh mentality” we call that. 

Sea Frozen uses modern facilities and ancient experiences and lessons. We strongly believe in “Duc in altum”, an old biblical saying, but still relevant today. It’s a motto that is widely supported in our company. After a failed night of fishing, the call anyway: launch out into the deep! Not logical, almost impossible, but as a result a wonderful catch was brought to shore. Pursue, where most would stop, for difficult circumstances often lead to the best results.
