⚓ From Boat to Plate — How Priyanka Sea Foods Brings You Fresh Catch Daily

When you buy a fish from Priyanka Sea Foods, you’re not just buying a product — you’re bringing home a story. It begins long before sunrise, at the edge of the Arabian Sea, where fishing boats return from their nightly voyage loaded with the ocean’s treasures. From those first rays of dawn at Sassoon Dock to the moment the fish reaches your kitchen, every step is guided by one promise — freshness you can trust.


The Catch — Where It All Begins

At 3 AM, as most of Mumbai sleeps, the sea is alive with activity. Fishing boats glide back toward the Colaba coastline, their decks full of Pomfret, Rawas, Surmai, and Prawns. The air carries the smell of salt and diesel, and the first light of dawn glints off silver scales.
For these fishermen, each trip is a gamble — guided by tides, weather, and instinct. Every fish caught is handled with care, placed on ice immediately, and brought to the dock to preserve its freshness.


Sassoon Dock — Mumbai’s Beating Heart

By the time the city wakes up, Sassoon Dock is already buzzing with life. Porters unload crates, traders inspect the catch, and women vendors quickly sort the fish by size and species.
At Priyanka Sea Foods, our sourcing team is right there — selecting only the best fish from trusted fishermen and ensuring every piece meets our strict standards for hygiene and quality.

We don’t just look for size,” says one of our sourcing managers. “We look for shine, texture, and the natural smell of the sea — that’s how we know it’s fresh.


Cleaning and Packing — The Freshness Promise

Once the fish is selected, it’s taken to our cleaning and processing area, where it is:

  • Thoroughly washed in chilled, clean water

  • Gutted, scaled, and cleaned under hygienic conditions

  • Stored on crushed ice to maintain the ideal temperature

Every fish is handled gently, ensuring it stays firm, moist, and naturally flavorful. We never use preservatives or artificial coatings — just pure, fresh seafood, the way nature intended.


The Journey to You — Cold Chain Perfection

Maintaining freshness doesn’t end at the dock. We ensure that the cold chain remains unbroken — from Sassoon Dock to your doorstep.
Each delivery is made in temperature-controlled containers, so your seafood arrives as fresh as the moment it left the sea.

Whether you’re ordering Pomfret for curry, Prawns for fry, or Rawas for grill, the same care follows every order — handled cleanly, packed securely, and delivered with love.


Step 5: The Kitchen — Completing the Circle

When you unwrap your order and breathe in that faint ocean aroma, you’re experiencing the result of hours of hard work, dedication, and respect for the sea.
That’s what makes Priyanka Sea Foods special — it’s not just seafood; it’s a connection between Mumbai’s coast, its fishermen, and your family table.


From the boat to your plate, every fish tells a story of tradition, care, and freshness.
At Priyanka Sea Foods, we’re proud to honor the people who make this possible — the fishermen, the sorters, the vendors, and everyone who ensures that the ocean’s bounty reaches you in its purest form.
When you buy from us, you’re not just getting seafood — you’re tasting the legacy of Mumbai’s coast.
