Regional Partner Programme

Southern Europe
Starfish is expanding its commercial presence in Italy, Spain and Greece. We are looking for established sales partners who know their local market and want to represent a premium frozen fish brand on a commission basis.
Who we are
Filleting, processing,
storing, distributing
Starfish is based in Urk, the European centre for the distribution and processing of flatfish. We buy fresh fish at the Urk auction, process it under super-hygienic conditions using state-of-the-art equipment, and deliver frozen throughout Europe. A reliable, long-term business partner for buyers across the globe.
Our product range includes plaice, sole, flounder, mackerel, salmon, seabass, sea bream, cod and more. We also offer our own retail brand “Sea of Stars” as well as private label options.
