Seafood supplier Culimer announced it is going to exhibit at the Sirha exhibition in Geneva. The Dutch company, renowned for its high value seafood, says it has received interest from the Swiss market to explain more about super frozen tuna products. Super frozen tuna has a high potential in Switzerland where the market focuses on high value, responsibly caught seafood. Culimer will also show its other seafood products such as shrimps, king crab and snow crab.

One of the leading tuna suppliers Culimer is going to exhibit at the Sirha exhibition in Geneva in Switzerland 5 till 7 February 2012. During the three days show, Culimer will focus on its super frozen tuna assortment. The company says it has received interest from various Swiss based companies to explain more about super frozen tuna and the advantages of the product.

Culimer now sees the increasing global acceptance and demand for super frozen tuna, especially in a high value market as Switzerland. “The industry starts realizing that the Japanese have been working with super frozen tuna for a long time already,” says Maarten van Geest, Communication Manager of Culimer. “Realizing that the Japanese can make the best sushi out of tuna that has been frozen at -60°C, the seafood industry now finally understands the advantages of super frozen.” he adds.

Responsible super frozen tuna
Culimer is specialized in ultra low temperature super frozen processing of -60°C. Together with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Culimer works towards sustainable tuna by implementing circle hooks in long line tuna fisheries. Circle hooks allow fishermen to reduce unwanted by catch by as much as 80%, compared to traditional J-hooks. By combining the super frozen technology with the implementation of circle hooks, Culimer says it is able to offer the future of responsibly caught tuna.
