Ocean Gems Sources the Best Seafood from Around the World
Sea To Table
With Ocean Gems, you can taste the difference! All our seafood is meticulously preserved using time-honored, industry-approved methods, ensuring superior quality and freshness.
Capturing Freshness in a Flash
Seafood from Ocean Gems is snap frozen within hours after it is farmed or wild-caught to ensure its eating consistency and freshness. This method freezes food quickly at an extremely low temperature with cold circulating air to reduce crystallization.
Caught and processed at Sea
Our fishing boats double as both factories and transport for our wild-caught fish. The fish are cleaned and filleted on the boat and then flash frozen within a few hours. Our crab meat is harvested from live crabs and processed at a factory that is only a few minutes away from the dock. Our head on, shell on prawns are harvested and kept alive in oxygenized tanks until they can be processed at the nearest facility.
Cooked and pasteurized for enhanced shelf-life
Blue swimmer crabs caught alive from the ocean are thoroughly steamed and then chilled before the meat is removed, sorted, and canned. A stringent inspection is carried out to remove inedible parts such as broken shells. Pasteurization is applied to the canned food to enhance shelf-life under food safety management and allow it to last up to 12 months when refrigerated.
Smoked and curated to perfection
Our Sockeye and Atlantic Salmon is smoked and cured to perfection by Foppen, the world's leading specialist smokehouse. Our HACCP- and IFS-certified supplier uses traditional cold and hot smoking techniques as well as a unique blend of oak and beech wood, making the cured and smoked salmon deliciously smoky with a firm texture.
Responsibly sourcing our seafood products
Ocean Gems sources directly from fisheries and farms that are either MSC or ASC-compliant, or other sustainable certified programs, such as BAP, GAP, etc. Regular site visits and assessments are carried out in accordance with our responsible sourcing standards.
