Our Timaru plant
is a unique facility specifically designed by the
Deep Cove Management Team to maximise both
throughput and recovery. The processing operation has been created to maximise
the cold chain from catching - landing  processing
right through to freezing. Our plant operates 22 hours a day in shifts,
seven days a week depending on fish availability. The
two main species harvested and processed are
red cod, which runs generally from December
to March, and hoki, from
July to September, but with flexibility being the key. The
factory can process up to 25 different inshore species in the same day. |

The Deep Cove retail shop situated on Stafford Street, which is in the heart of Timaru's business sector. The shop is decorated with an Edwardian theme and the staff's reputation for customer service is second to none. |

Deep Cove operates a fleet of inshore fishing vessels and contracts independent fisherman (both inshore and deep water) which increases both the volume and variety of seafood's available. |
