Fresh into the freezer
As our slogan says we are professionals in the freezing business.
Selkämeren Jää operates from the best places and biggest fishing docks when it comes to fishery. The freezing and refinement operations are located in Uusikaupunki and in Pori.
On the most efficient days, we process as much as 250 tons of fresh fish. When our frozen food warehouses are full, we can find a total of about five million kilos of herring in them.
With our new vacuum percussion line, completed in the spring of 2022, we will gut more than one million kilos of MSC-certified herring a year at our Uusikaupunki office. The fish is guaranteed to be fresh because its distance from the sea to processing is only 100 meters.
We supply our customers with about 15 million kilos of herring and other fish products every year. We deliver the largest fish to fillets for processing in Uusikaupunki, Turku and Pori. Our other important customer groups are the canned fish factories abroad and the fish feed industry, both in Finland and abroad.

Herring fishing
The fishing vessels of our companies, trawlers Westfjord and Hanne, request fresh raw material for our facilities. Herring is fished throughout the Baltic Sea.
The Gulf of Bothnia is our most important fishing area, and our landings in Finland consist of almost 100% Gulf of Bothnia herring.
The fishing for herring and sprat in our vessels at Gulf of Bothnia is MSC certified. Vessels fish for herring and sprat. The vessels have RSW (Refrigerated Sea Water) tanks, where freshly caught fish can be cooled to 0 degrees at sea.
