Leinebris Premium Fish Since 1898
Since 1898, Leinebris has been catching and supplying premium fish. At Friars Pride, we are proud to in partnership with them as two family businesses who share the same passion for our quality, product and service.
A Family-Owned Business
A Norwegian fishing company, Leinebris is a family-owned business that has been fishing since 1898. Thanks to their heritage as fifth generation fishermen, their first-hand knowledge means they can serve customers all around the world with premium longline fish.
Premium Fish
All year round Leinebris catch quality wild fish in the Northeast Atlantic, such as skin-on and PBI cod and haddock.
So, what makes it premium? It ultimately comes from the way the fish is caught and the way it is treated when it comes on the ship. By being line-caught, it ensures high quality and consistency. When Leinebris catch their fish by longline, they bring on board alive, one by one. After being caught, they prepare the fish, ready to be sold in under 3 hours. The fish preparation is done using the very best equipment, with the fish being frozen to -18 degrees. By freezing the fish so quickly, it ensures the fish is 'fresher than fresh'.
By using the Frozen-At-Sea method, it locks in the quality, freshness, and goodness of the fish, which delivers a premium taste, firm texture, and pure white appearance.
