Sea Products Oysters
New Zealand oysters are renowned for their consistently high quality and superior flavour. We grow both long line and intertidal oysters which gives us extremely high consistency of supply and quality.
Production
Predominantly the main Pacific Oyster season in New Zealand runs from April – November. During this period Oysters are in peak condition for half-shell and meat (pots).
Our ability to grow long line Oysters give us a distinct advantage over many other producers because we can supply good quality fresh oysters during the summer months when the perceived consumption of Oysters is greatest.
Packaging
As we have both our own production and packing facilities we can accommodate requests from clients to pack into any other specialty packs.
Nutritious
Oysters are not only delicious, but they're also one of the most nutritionally well balanced of foods, containing protein, carbohydrates and lipids.
The National Heart and Lung Institute suggest oysters as an ideal food for inclusion in low-cholesterol diets.
Oysters are an excellent source of vitamins A, B1(thiamin), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), C ( ascorbic acid) and D (calciferol).
Four or five medium size oysters supply the recommended daily allowance of iron, copper, iodine, magnesium, calcium, zinc, manganese and phosphorus.
