Wholesale & Retail

More than 80% of New Zealanders eat seafood at least once a month and almost 50% eat it once a week. This immensely popular product is sold in wholesale and retail outlets throughout New Zealand every day of the week.

The people who work in the wholesale and retail sector of the New Zealand seafood industry deal directly with the consumer, so they need to know a great deal about the seafood product they are handling and selling.

Seafood ITO’s Wholesale & Retail sector encompasses businesses that process or market seafood in New Zealand. This includes Seafood Wholesalers and Retailers (often referred to as fish mongers), processing factories, supermarkets and restaurants.
