Processing
Upon arrival to the Natural Select plant in
Guayaquil, all products are immediately
quality-tested (arrival temperature, overall
appearance, shape, color, texture, shell
density, odor, and flavor). After approval,
the products are immediately sorted and
packaged, taking special care with regard to
processing time, product temperature, and
absolute cleanliness. Our
Sushisan/Sashimisan Brand takes this
process 1-step further, hand-selecting only
the very best of each lot for processing.
Freezing
Natural Select Brand Products are frozen in
very small, 500lb batches using blast chillers
@ -30C. Freezing Block-Frozen shrimp
takes the longest, at approximately 4 hours,
while IQF shrimp takes only 20 minutes.
Sushisan/Sashimisan Brand freezing is done
Cryogenically with Liquid Nitrogen @ -196
C, stopping all molecular activity in under 1
minute. This yields products that, when
thawed, are truly better than fresh.
Consistency
Because of our reliance on hundreds of
smaller boats as opposed to fewer large
trawlers, we are able to offer more
consistent sizes and quantities, which
exactly mirror the state of Ecuador’s total
fishery. Furthermore, because of our large
and varied supply network, we are able to
keep quality consistent from load to load,
season to season, and year to year.
Customer Service
After Product Quality, Quantity, and
Consistency, we strive to differentiate
ourselves by providing superior Customer
Service. From Product Demonstrations and
Seminars for your Executive Team &
Salespeople, to soliciting Product and
Service Feedback to constantly improve,
our customer service pledge is unrelenting.
We look forward to the challenge to exceed
expectations.
