Shellfish

Information

The cultivation of shellfish is season-dependent. Harvesting them is a purely artisanal practice, often involving manual labor and therefore subject to weather conditions. Thanks to our extensive network of seafarmers, we have a wide variety of shellfish available. Just as diverse as our range of shellfish is, so too are their origins. The well-known cockles and razor clams, for example, come from the Netherlands. The highly sought-after vongole and lupini come from Italy. We source the white venus clams from Ireland, and the clams come from England. After harvesting, the shellfish are brought to our factory in Yerseke, where they are processed in our modern depuration and purification facility. This ensures they remain in excellent condition, allowing us to guarantee optimal quality and food safety. They are then packaged in 1 kg nets or leak-proof containers.
Krijn Verwijs Yerseke B.V. / Premier3G401In our family, everything revolves around the sea. It is our source, and here our delicious and nutritious shellfish are grown and harvested. Our great-grandfather, Pieter Verwijs, began cultivating oysters in 1880. For as long as we can remember, we have lived with and from the sea. We are proud to continue his legacy with Premier. Every day, we ensure that our customers around the world can enjoy a full range of fresh Premier fish, shellfish, and sea vegetables. From flavorful mussels, shellfish, and crustaceans to the most premium oysters on the market. We select only the very best! Through our active role in the entire production chain, from source to plate, we are able to maintain our excellent quality and deliver the freshest products. Our innovation team continuously provides the market with new and inspiring possibilities. We make no compromises at the expense of the environment. Our mission is to leave the sea better and healthier for future generations. We do this together with our Seafarmers. They are located all around the world. We see them as part of the family and know them personally. Together, we believe in the same sustainable future that the sea can offer, and we are on the path to reducing our ecological footprint to a minimum. Some of our Premier products are inherently sustainable and naturally help filter the sea. In the areas where we plant and harvest our mussels and oysters, we see ecosystems thrive once again. We encourage new and existing customers to confidently discover innovative ways to prepare our products and experience their own Premier Moments all year round. This way, everyone, of all ages, can enjoy the delights from our sea.
