The Scallop Industry

Commercial scallops (Pectin fumatus) in South Eastern Australia are mostly harvested in Tasmanian state waters managed by the Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (DPIPWE) and in the Bass Strait Central Zone managed by the Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA). Scallop fisheries world wide are notorious for their variability in recruitment with a high variability in stock abundance strongly influenced by environmental factors. Scallop stocks in southern Australia are no exception to this and historically both fisheries have been subject to highly variable annual catches and total fishery closures.

Our Products

All of our scallops are wild caught and manually hand shucked, and we provide the highest quality of Tasmanian scallops available to the market. We provide scallops to our customers both fresh and frozen, depending on the customers preference, and can pack the scallops into 1kg cryovac packs to ensure optimum quality is retained when stored. Fresh scallops can be packaged loose (bulk) in lined polyboxes. Alternatively, they can be packaged in 1kg cryovac packs, and then packed into a polybox. Frozen scallops are packed into 1kg cryovac packs before freezing.
