The Company
Arctic Crab handles only raw materials processed on board to ensure the highest possible freshness and quality. The company operates throughout Europe offering king crab and "deepsea" crab. King crab is recognized worldwide for being one of the most desired seafood products; it is caught wild in the waters of the Bering Sea and can reach the exceptional weight of 8-10 kg. On the other hand, "deepsea" crab is caught from the depths of the southeastern part of the Atlantic Ocean, boiled in seawater and frozen on board, ensuring maximum freshness, texture and flavor.
