Our super fresh fish products

The Ekofish Group controls every link in the quality chain. It starts with the selection of fishing grounds and techniques. After that, the utmost care is taken in processing and preserving the fish on the modern fleet, which meets the highest standards of hygiene and cooling.

Ekofish Group BV brings to the market the usual fish species from the North Sea — such as plaice, lemon sole, turbot, and brill — all from its own catch. In addition, there is cooperation with carefully selected fishery partners who supply “pulse” sole, MSC-certified cod, Skrei cod, and MSC redfish.
By staying close to the source, the fish is of excellent quality and sustainably caught.

Sustainability is our responsibility

Respect for the sea and the awareness that generations will follow after us are deeply rooted in our mindset. For the Ekofish Group, sustainability is a way of life.

Sustainability is not just a buzzword for Ekofish Group. Respect for the sea and the awareness that generations will follow after us are deeply rooted in Ekofish Group’s way of thinking. Sustainable practices have truly taken shape on the trawlers: in the wide mesh size of the nets, from which young fish and unwanted bycatch can already escape back into the sea; in the floating fishing nets, which ensure that the seabed remains undamaged during fishing; in the stunner, which anesthetizes the fish immediately after capture and allows for painless processing; but also in the lower fuel consumption that results from the environmentally friendly twin-rig fishing method.

Sustainability is a buzzword. But for the people of Ekofish Group, it is a way of life.
