Known for providing wild-caught calamari to foodservice clients, a rebrand will allow consumers to experience the product at home.

The company recently announced an expanded and redesigned retail product line rolling out nationwide throughout the spring, allowing more consumers to find restaurant-quality product online and in retail stores.

These are packaged in two, eight-ounce servings per box. Additionally, Peruvian Calamari Steaks are offered with four per box.

Our expanded and redesigned retail offering allows us to better connect with home chefs, giving them easy access to responsibly sourced and delicious calamari along with great recipes to make in the comfort of their own kitchens."
All packaging is now updated, and each includes an enticing recipe on the back of the box with a QR code taking consumers directly to a recipe video showing step-by-step cooking instructions.
