Freshwater Prawns and Fresh Mudcrabs

Depak from Manurewa

I am just here to get some feedback on something I will be keen to do very soon business wise. I have been taking some time to do some research etc on this. I have the intention to bring in freshwater prawns and hopefully live mud crabs into New Zealand from overseas.Freshwater prawns will b e pretty much fresh, caught, packed and sent to me all within the week. Mudcrabs will be live, is I have the intention of selling as soon as I pick them up from the airport, even if it is midnight, I will sell from my address, (which I have licence for from Auckland Council) And I am looking for any feedback, negative or positive, I will take it on the chin no problems..I will get the first batch hopefully by christmas. I have some positive feedbacks from restaurants from Auckland and wellington and would like to hear from anyone in public as my intention is to sell at the local Manurewa and Otara markets and possibly Hamilton and Takapuna markets to cater for the asian and other communities who are more keen on prawns and mud crabs. I look forward to the feedback. Thanks guys..
