Seafood & Fisheries Export Services

From MPI certification to international buyer sourcing — end-to-end export support for NZ seafood producers

Get Started

Why Fisheries Exports Need Expert Documentation

New Zealand's seafood commands premium prices internationally — but the cold chain waits for no one. Fresh and chilled product has strict shelf-life windows, Halal certification is essential for Gulf markets, and MPI health certificates must be flawless — there's zero tolerance for error in animal products documentation. Finding verified international buyers who meet your quality and pricing requirements adds another layer.

Libretto manages the entire export journey — from sourcing verified importers across Asia, the Middle East, and the EU, through MPI certification and Halal documentation, to coordinating time-critical cold chain freight. We offer 24/7 priority processing for airfreight of fresh product because your catch doesn't wait for business hours.
