Established in 1998 Smokey Bay Seafood Company specializes in the sales and marketing of farm raised and wild caught shellfish to domestic and export markets.
Smokey Bay was initially a smoked oyster company. In 1999 we launched a line of gourmet smoked oysters in various marinades. By working with our suppliers, oyster farmers, we developed a keen appreciation for the shellfish business.
Over time our company’s purpose evolved into providing marketing services to North America’s finest shellfish farms.
In the past decade we have created a network of producers and buyers as well as logistics solutions.
We bring buyers and producers together and find the ideal logistics solution to deliver the most innovative live, fresh and frozen shellfish options to food service and retail distributors in North America, Asia and Europe.
Marketing programs backed by research and pricing strategies targeting importers, distributors and wholesalers is the main service we provide to oyster, mussel and clam farmers.
We participate in trade shows, workshops, sales seminars and direct sales calls on behalf of Smokey Bay Seafood’s clients.
Time sensitive logistics is a key aspect in supporting these marketing and sales initiatives. We can advise on the most cost effective and low risk routes to get the live, fresh and frozen shellfish you need delivered to major airports and seaports worldwide – Europe, Asia, North America – wherever your market is.
If you are a seafood vendor we can work with you to find the highest quality shellfish direct from its source, either within or outside our current network. Our relationships with North American shellfish farms and processing plants will give you access to a steady supply of product at competitive prices.
Your advantage in working with us is our continuing commitment to fair price, high quality, reliable transportation and professional customer service combined with a track record of results for both producers and buyers.
