Fastnet Fish Ltd is proud to announce the acquisition of Seafish UK Ltd, a leading supplier of value-added seafood products to the retail and foodservice sectors.
“This acquisition is a great fit for both companies,” said Emma Acklam, Sales Director of Seafish UK. “By combining our expertise and strengths, we can give our customers and suppliers confidence in our ability to deliver top-quality products. Seafish UK will continue to operate as an independent business while benefiting from the support and resources of the wider AMI group”.
The acquisition coincides with the retirement of Bob Carter, Managing Director and principal shareholder of Seafish UK, following an outstanding career spanning almost 60 years in the seafood industry. Bob has been a highly respected figure within the sector, dedicating decades to building strong supplier and customer relationships and helping establish Seafish UK as a trusted and successful business within the industry.
Everyone at Fastnet Fish, AMI Group, and Seafish UK would like to thank Bob for his immense contribution to the seafood trade and wish him a long, healthy, and well-deserved retirement.
Fastnet Fish is part of the AMI Group of companies and specialises in raw material procurement and supply chain management.
“Seafish is a well-run business with significant potential, and we are delighted to welcome them into the Fastnet Group,” said Danny Burton, Managing Director of the Fastnet Group. “It is very much business as usual for Seafish UK. They have a great team of people in place, and we will provide senior support as required throughout their growth journey.”
