We’ve built our business by supporting and investing in communities all over the world. Our sustainability practices are an integral part of our commitment to nurture and protect those communities: the people who fish for us, the environment and the fish themselves.
Our team is a vital part of our success. Everyone who works for us, wherever they are in the world, is a valued member of our community. We view success as being a good company, as well as being in good company.
We’ve been trading since 1995, so between us we’ve got many years of experience sourcing shellfish for retail. Since we began, our vision has been to be bold and drive innovation in every part of the industry; and that’s still the case now.
We’re proud to have launched Big & Happy, an environmentally-conscious shellfish brand. Happy Prawn Co. and Big Prawn Co. bring together our expertise, passion for shellfish and shared love of the environment of two like-minded companies.
