At Howe, we understand the importance of presentation of your fresh perishable products.
Seafood Merchandising Ideas
Best practices include setting the ice in separated compartments (trays) that allow melted water to drain away from the product. This is to reduce any chance of cross contamination that may occur when different species of seafood could have contact with ice melt water from other species.
