Shore Mariner® has been one of New Zealand’s leading Seafood brands for generations.

In the 1980s, Shore Foods starts as a pioneer in the imported seafood business and innovated with proprietary products new to New Zealand from all over the world. Shore Foods then acquired Mariner Foods Ltd in 1993 and became Shore Mariner®.
