Fish Tales journey

For over 20 years, I have lived, fished, and cooked alongside the most remarkable fishing communities around the world—fishers who catch with respect for the sea and a vision for the future. Let’s make the right choices for our oceans together, with respect and humility. Only then can we ensure that not just us, but future generations too, can continue to enjoy the most delicious fish. — Bart van Olphen, Founder of Fish Tales

the best qualityMost delicious fish

Our fish is all natural. We carefully select the fisheries and canneries we work with—only the highest quality is good enough for our products. The only additions you'll find in our products are the finest olive oil, juicy lemon, spicy chili, or rich tomato. That’s all we need.

100% traceable Good catch

All our fishers make sure every catch is guaranteed to be sustainable. That means never taking more from the sea than what’s responsible—no damage to the seabed and hardly any bycatch.

Also—and especially—for the fishers!Partnerships that work

We carefully select our fishers and build long-term partnerships—we don’t just switch fisheries. These fishers know better than anyone how to catch the best fish, a craft passed down from generation to generation.

Not the other way around!Mission with a bussiness

Founded with a mission, growing into a successful business. Award-winning Seafoodchef Bart van Olphen knew things could—and should—be different, so he brought his partner Harm Jan van Dijk on board. Now, you can find us across Europe, the United States, and Canada. But our mission remains the same: enjoying the best-tasting fish, now and in the future.
