Our sustainably sourced seabass and seabream options are frozen within hours of harvest. Once defrosted, they’re as fresh as the day they were caught, resulting in premium, top-quality products. Perfect for Mediterranean cooking, these fish options need no more than lemon and herbs to make the most of the fresh, sweet flavours.

Our surimi products range from crab sticks, crab flakes and imitation king prawn tails. Surimi options are versatile and can be used in salads, stir-fries and pasta for a more cost-effective substitute for crab and lobster.

Our wild Argentinian prawns are frozen at sea to retain their superior quality. Their sweet flavour and meaty texture give them a similar eating quality to lobster and are a great addition to any menu: available cooked peeled, deveined and raw whole.

Frozen at sea

 

Our Frozen At Sea (FAS) products reflect the epitome of freshness. The fish is caught, processed, filleted and frozen out at sea, maintaining the powerful flavours and textures. There’s no fresher tasting fish available unless you were to catch, cook and eat your own fish on the same day.

 

 

The term ‘frozen at sea’ is quite self-explanatory, but it doesn’t explain just how fresh our fish are when they’re frozen. When the fish is caught offshore, it is processed and frozen immediately, usually onboard a large fishing vessel, at a temperature of -40 degrees within a few hours. This procedure reduces the natural oxidation and preserves ultimate freshness, preventing microbial growth and the loss of nutrients.

 

 

Freezing fish in this way allows us to offer seasonal fish all year, meaning you can rely on Sykes for your seafood delivery at any time of the year. Frozen At Sea contains more vitamins and minerals compared to fresh chilled fish because it’s frozen the moment it’s caught, meaning it locks in all those nutrients.

Cold Water Prawns

Our coldwater prawns are an exquisite luxury, sustainably sourced from the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans with complete supply chain traceability. As the name implies, our coldwater prawns come from the icy waters around Greenland, Iceland, Norway and Canada. These prawns grow naturally, slowly developing their signature taste. Delicate, sweet, mildly salty and perfect for a prawn cocktail. Our cold water prawns are available in a variety of sizes, all pre-cooked and ready to eat once defrosted.

As one of the biggest importers of cold water prawns in the UK, we’ve made sure that our processing facility in Sefton leads the way for the rest of the food manufacturing industry. All our prawns are processed and packaged to the highest standards which is all part of what makes our prawns taste uniquely fresh and juicy.
