We supply restaurants across the Southeast with line-caught, dock-fresh seafood — delivered daily so your guests taste the difference before they take the first bite.
Southern Seafood Distributors has been a cornerstone of the Franklinton food-service community, supplying chefs and restaurant owners with the finest Gulf and Atlantic catch for years.
We work directly with trusted fishermen and certified purveyors to ensure every fillet, whole fish, and shellfish order meets the standards your menu demands. No middlemen. No compromises. Just seafood that arrives as fresh as the day it came out of the water.
We stock a rotating selection of the season's best — from classic staples to premium specialties your chefs will appreciate.
Wild-caught brown, white, and pink shrimp — available whole, peeled, or deveined to your specifications.
Whole blue crabs, lump meat, backfin, and claw — sourced from Gulf Coast fisheries at peak freshness.
Red snapper, grouper, mahi-mahi, sablefish, and more — filleted or whole, custom-cut for your menu.
Locally harvested oysters from the finest beds — available by the half case or full case, shucked or on ice.
Maine and Gulf spiny lobster, stone crab claws, and other premium selections for elevated dishes.
IQF fish, smoked varieties, and shelf-stable specialties for pantry essentials and backup inventory.
