OUR
COMPANY

 
Over half a century ago, prestige, experience, and the will of four German families joined to give birth to Mar del Plata City's first cold storage plant, whose development was based on their broad knowledge on cold.
Its structure, which present capacity reaches 20.000 cubic meters, is distributed into 30 cold storage-rooms. Since then and for three generations, "Frigorifico Sud-Este S.A" has worked year after year in the specialization of industrial cold for any kind of product, mostly for fish and seafood packing and freezing. Most of Mar del Plata's present largest companies requested our company's service in their early stages. Today, all this experience is shown through our uninterrupted export activity.


An especially conditioned area of 1.600 square meters, has been assigned for processing and packaging commercial species, which are frozen in 6 tunnels (35 tons per day) and 3 double contact freezer (4 tons every 3 hours), with a whole storage capacity of 3.000 tons.
"FRIGORIFICO SUD-ESTE S.A " has 100 employees and we work under FDA's HACCP guidelines supplying to very demanding markets. Also, our work is performed under the CEE's rules.



 

 Kurt Truppel, Vice-Chairman of "FRIGORIFICO SUD-ESTE S.A." summarizes the company's commercial strategy as follows: "We try to concentrate our production on the American market, to which we mainly supply flounder, grouper and sea trout fillets; the European market, for which we provide dog-fish, king-clip and rock salmon; and the eastern market, with specialties such king clip bladders, shark fins and top shell meat".
 

In addition, we are specialists in added value seafood products and at present we count with a fresh export products division.
At the same time, we are the leading exporters of semi-cooked I.Q.F. top shell meat  to U.S.A. and to eastern countries, whiting cocochas and scargots to Spain, Portugal and France.

Last year we were awarded by the U.S. Departament of Transportation in recognition for our outstanding work in support to the United States Merchant Marine.
Our company has a major sales team, which sticks to very sound quality and sanitary controls for the trading of seafood products from several processors.
