Pamela Zenati, one of the partners in our family business, has been working with Front Edge Media, an online content creation company, who are currently working on a large project with East Lothian Food and Drink BID, producing a number of videos showcasing each producer in the East Lothian region and ours is the first to be produced by Calum and his team. This video provides information on the top quality, fresh fish which we source from the Shetland's and promotes our specialty oak smoked salmon and haddock, which is smoked on the premises using methods handed down through the generations, since 1921.     Thanks to Calum and his team for putting together an excellent promotional video and we look forward to working with him again in the near future....

It has kindly been designed with the help of graphic designer Alex Dasi who has years of experience working in both Spain and in the UK. This incorporates our new brand colours to make sure we are consistent in all of our current and future promotional material and advertising. A massive thank you to Alex for his help and excellent advice. Find...
