Customer testimonials

Hear what our customers think

We’re proud to supply such a wide range of fantastic customers

Working with Direct Seafoods Colchester has been a fantastic experience from start to finish. The produce is always great; however, the customer support is what really shines. Ruby, our Account Manager, is an absolute star always attentive, quick to resolve any last-minute requests, and a genuine pleasure to work with!

Karl Unruly Pig, Owner

I have used your company for over four years, in this time they have…….

  • Held prices
  • Passed on discounts to their customers
  • Delivered without fail
  • Always been helpful

I would say all in all they are the best fish mongers I’ve ever had, being in the trade over 44 years I wouldn’t go anywhere else

This sum-up is my own experience and given as I genuinely want them to be around as an asset to my business, I would not hesitate to recommend them to any fish using establishment.

You will not be disappointed they are really that good

 

Miles Wiseman Arch Bar, Lounge & Kitchen, Ramsgate, Owner

I’ve been really impressed with the quality of the fish, it’s consistently excellent. Ordering is quick and straightforward, and the delivery service is brilliant, especially with the tracking option.

Kirsty has been amazing from day one. I’ve asked plenty of questions, and she’s always been friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to help.

The daily communication makes my job much easier, keeping me up to date with what’s available, and the daily specials have been a great help for running my business. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
