Keeping Seafood Fresh from Coast to Coast

A Global Seafood Network
Lobster is our premier seafood commodity, with the majority of shipments originating from Boston—the heart of the U.S. lobster industry. However, our expertise extends far beyond Boston. We handle a diverse array of products including mussels, clams, scallops, crabs, tuna, and various fresh and frozen fish. Our network spans the globe, reaching major domestic markets like San Francisco and Los Angeles, as well as key international destinations in Europe and Asia.
The Journey to Unmatched Freshness
Our commitment to freshness begins the moment your cargo is in transit. Dedicated reefer trucks operate daily between Boston and Newark, quickly connecting temperature-sensitive shipments to our widebody flights. At our facilities, specialized coolers maintain optimal conditions, and our partnerships with seafood logistics experts ensure every shipment is packaged correctly—with dry ice or gel packs as needed. Our online booking and tracking systems provide real-time updates from receipt to final delivery, giving our customers confidence in our precise, timely service, especially during peak periods like the holiday surge in lobster shipments for European markets such as Paris, Rome, and Milan.
