Company Profile
History
Since its inception in the 1970s, Johnson Seafood has been a pioneer of aquaculture in Tainan’s Jiali Township and has been based in the Qigu coastal areas around Tainan. At first, it went by the name of Chialy Seafood and sold directly to all fish markets across Taiwan. With increasing numbers of clients, it gradually expanded into the import and sale of live and frozen seafood. After 50 years of honest operation, Johnson Seafood has developed into one of Taiwan’s leading seafood importers. With an excellent reputation and a sizeable procurement volume, it is now a major collaboration partner that has the support and trust of overseas suppliers.
