Fish Index — UK, Ireland & Nordic Fish & Seafood Industry Directory
Plaice holds significant importance for Norfolk's seafood industry, with its rich fishing grounds off the East Anglian coast providing a sustainable source. Businesses like Fishers of Hunstanton and Dabs 'n' Crabs actively land and distribute this popular flatfish. Norfolk's coastal proximity to prime Plaice habitats makes it a crucial hub for the species' capture and initial market entry.
Norfolk's processing capacity for Plaice is supported by local merchants and fishmongers, often operating out of ports such as Wells-next-the-Sea and King's Lynn, which serve as key landing sites. The trade of Plaice provides employment for local fishermen, processors, and distributors, contributing to the regional economy. A notable fact is the strong local demand for fresh Plaice, particularly during peak seasons, reflecting its culinary appeal across Norfolk.
