Business description

The company is a wholesaler and exporter of live shellfish, with all products sourced from waters off the west coast of Scotland.

The ideal location of the company’s premises allows it to access to some of the finest seafood available, with the limited amount of suitable fishing grounds creating high levels of demand for its products.
The company is being offered for sale to facilitate the shareholders’ retirement.
