For generations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Krijn Verwijs, everything starts with the sea. It has for generations. In 1880, our great-grandfather Pieter Verwijs began farming oysters. What started back then still forms the foundation of our family business today: working with the very best the sea has to offer, with a deep understanding of our products and respect for the environment they come from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, under our Premier brand, we supply customers around the world with a complete range of fresh fish, shellfish, crustaceans and sea vegetables. From mussels and specialty shellfish to crustaceans and premium oysters. We know our products, we know where they come from, and we select only those that meet our high standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>From source to plate<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Great quality starts at the source. That is why we are actively involved throughout the entire supply chain, from farming and harvesting to processing and delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And we do not do it alone. Our seafarmers around the world are an essential part of that chain. We know our partners personally and believe in building long-term relationships. Together, we share knowledge, improve the way we work and make sure our customers can rely on fresh products of consistent quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Behind every product are people who know their craft. At sea, in production, on the road and behind the scenes. Craftsmanship, responsibility and teamwork make the difference. It reflects the philosophy behind Krijn Verwijs: looking beyond the product itself to recognise the people, knowledge and dedication that make it possible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\" data-pin-color=\"red\" data-pin-height=\"128\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/pidgets\/pinit_fg_en_rect_red_28.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the sea.
