We source in Africa and Europe and deliver into Asia and Europe. One desk from quotation to arrival.
Shoal Current Trading is a seafood trading and brokerage house. We take the commercial risk out of long-haul frozen trade by staying involved at both ends of the shipment.
African fisheries produce species that Asian markets buy in volume: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, sardinella, horse mackerel, croaker, sole and tuna.

Five stages, and you hear from us at each one.
You tell us species, size grade, pack, volume and destination port. We confirm what is realistic for the season.
We check availability at approved plants, then send a firm offer naming the plant, pack, glaze and loading window.
Sizing, glaze percentage, colour, odour and packaging are checked against the contract. Photographs go to you before the container is sealed.
Health certificate, catch certificate, certificate of origin, bill of lading and packing list are prepared and released against agreed payment terms.
We track the vessel, share the temperature record on arrival and stay on the file until the goods are cleared and accepted.
Send the species, grade, volume and destination.
