The Salmon market continues to send shock waves through the supply chain. Prices have been increasing consistently for weeks but they have accelerated recently and are now reminiscent of those record high prices we encountered around this time last year.
Alternatives such as Chalk Stream Trout & Sea Reared Trout will no doubt follow suit as chefs look for cheaper alternatives but for now remain the best value choice should you be looking to swap out salmon.
The Skrei Cod season is well under way and prices have started to settle down now we are getting more consistent landings. Prices started particularly high this year but will now provide good value for a seasonal option through march.
Hake was a real GP winner through February and worth watching out for as we move into march. – Make sure you are signed up to our specials email and WhatsApp services to ensure you do not miss out
