Our philosophy
Fresh seafood should be exactly that — fresh
We're not a catalogue operation. We're a specialist seafood supplier who cares about the quality landing on your customers' plates.
At The Local Fish Market, we supply both fresh and frozen seafood, and we operate on a pre-order only basis — which means we never over-buy, never hold unnecessary stock, and never compromise on quality.
Every order is sourced, prepared, and delivered within a controlled timeframe. We don't hold stock and sell what's sitting in a chiller — every item is purchased specifically for your order, meaning you always get the freshest possible product, not something that's been sitting around.
Whether you're ordering dock-fresh salmon fillets for tonight's special or bulk frozen king prawns for a busy weekend service — we handle both with the same care and discipline.
We take care to work with responsible supply chains. You can confidently tell your customers where your seafood comes from — Scottish waters, Icelandic fisheries, certified aquaculture farms, and more.
We measure our success by the quality on your plates and the reliability of your orders.
Why trade with us
What makes us different
Sourced to order — never pre-stocked
We don't hold stock and sell what's sitting in a chiller. Every item is purchased specifically for your order — meaning you always get the freshest possible product, not something that's been sitting around.
Prepared to your kitchen's spec
Whole fish, filleted, pin-boned, portioned, skinless — tell us how your kitchen needs it and we'll prep it accordingly. Reduces your prep time, reduces waste, and keeps your operation tight.
Reliable twice-weekly schedule
Tuesday and Friday deliveries, every week. You plan your menu around our schedule, and we make sure we never let you down. Consistent timing means you can order with confidence.
Transparent trade pricing
No surprise invoices, no hidden handling fees. Our weekly trade price list is clear and honest. Volume regulars benefit from preferred pricing — we reward loyalty with better rates, not complicated contracts.
Direct relationship, no middlemen
You deal directly with us — not a call centre or account manager who doesn't know their halibut from their haddock. When you call, we answer. When you have a question, we give you a straight answer.
Sustainably & responsibly sourced
We take care to work with responsible supply chains. You can confidently tell your customers where your seafood comes from — Scottish waters, Icelandic fisheries, certified aquaculture farms, and more.
Trade partners say
Trusted by kitchens across the Midlands
Consistent quality and they always hit the delivery window. The fish arrives prepped exactly how we asked, which saves my team real time on prep.
We deal with them directly, no call centre. If something changes with a delivery they tell us straight away. That reliability is worth a lot in a busy kitchen.
The frozen king prawns and the fresh salmon are both excellent, and the pricing is clear. No surprise invoices at the end of the month.
They source specialist bits for us when we put something new on the menu. Being able to ask for scallops or monkfish and actually get it matters.
