Order sockeye salmon in bulk

Sockeye salmon, with its beautiful deep red colour and full flavour, is one of the most sought-after wild salmon species in the world. At Neerlandia Urk, we import this high-quality fish directly from the pristine waters of Alaska. Here in our Dutch facilities, we process the sockeye in a careful and efficient manner, with the salmon being filleted, sometimes portioned and, if required, vacuum-packed, to offer both fresh and frozen. Our customers are mainly in Europe. Especially the smokehouses and wholesalers have an interest in this product. We deliver mainly in large quantities with a minimum size of 100 kg. This can be done in polystyrene boxes that hold 3 – 20 kg. The fillet can also be vacuum-packed first.

Import of sockeye salmon to the Netherlands

As sockeye salmon can only be caught during the fishing season, a quantity is agreed in advance with a fixed supplier.

Processing sockeye into premium frozen and fresh products

The Sockeye arrives head-on and frozen at Neerlandia Urk. Here, we thaw the salmon carefully to preserve the flavour and texture. After this, a piece of the neck is removed for filleting. By filleting the salmon mechanically, we can process large quantities with minimal waste. After this, the fillet is processed by pinning and packed.

Export of sockeye salmon to wholesalers in Europe

We supply salmon products to various countries within Europe, including the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy. Our focus is on serving wholesalers, retailers and smokehouses looking for high-quality, sustainable fish products.
