Minimum order quantities apply depending on the species and account tier.

Does Tasman Star Seafood supply wholesale prawns and oysters in bulk?
Yes. Wholesale prawns (king, tiger, banana, school — raw and cooked) and oysters (Sydney Rock, Pacific) are available in bulk quantities for trade customers. Tasman Star operates its own commercial prawn trawler fleet, providing a direct line-of-supply for fresh Queensland wild-caught prawns in season. Call (07) 5507 6712 for current bulk pricing.
What is the minimum order for wholesale seafood from Tasman Star?
Minimum order quantities vary by product category and account tier. For fresh fish fillets, a typical minimum is 2–5 kg per species line. Prawns are generally sold by the 500g or 1 kg minimum for trade pricing. Oysters can be ordered by the dozen or by the bag (50–100 per bag). Sashimi-grade blocks have no minimum beyond the cut weight. The wholesale team works with each account to establish ordering rhythms that suit their kitchen volume — weekly standing orders, next-day top-up supply, and event bulk orders are all supported. Call (07) 5507 6712 for exact minimums for your business type.
How quickly can Tasman Star supply wholesale seafood to my restaurant?
For approved Gold Coast wholesale accounts, next-day delivery is available for orders placed before 2:00 PM. Same-day urgent supply can sometimes be arranged by calling the wholesale team on (07) 5507 6712 — depending on stock availability and delivery route timing. Northern Rivers NSW wholesale customers receive Tuesday and Friday delivery. Most Gold Coast hospitality businesses on a standing weekly order receive scheduled early-morning delivery before kitchen prep begins.
Can I get wholesale-grade portioning and cryo-packing from Tasman Star?
Yes. Tasman Star's processing facility at Labrador offers trade-ready preparation including custom portioning to weight (e.g. 180g salmon portions for a restaurant entrée), skinning, pin-boning, cryo-packing, and vacuum sealing for extended shelf life. This service is particularly valued by fish and chip shops, high-volume restaurant kitchens, and aged care providers who require consistent portion weights and minimal kitchen prep. Custom prep requirements should be specified at account setup — call (07) 5507 6712.
Does Tasman Star Seafood supply wholesale seafood direct from its own trawlers?
Yes. During Queensland prawn season, wild-caught prawns from Tasman Star's own commercial trawler fleet — including the Peter K — are available to wholesale trade accounts at direct-supply pricing. This eliminates the wholesale middleman premium that most restaurant suppliers face when buying prawns at market. Fleet-direct availability is seasonal and species-dependent — call the wholesale team on (07) 5507 6712 during the Queensland prawn season (typically March–July and October–December) to discuss fleet-catch pricing for your business.
