Behind the scenes 

Our respected employees give day by day their best in order to serve you as good as possible. This month we would like to introduce you to our warehouse manager Sasun “Sas” Abraham. Sas is supervising the logistical flow of incoming and outgoing goods. And responsible for our cold stores. After several years of warehouse experience in construction materials he joined our team 3 years ago.
With his logistical knowledge Sas knows well how to organize our cold storage and to motivate his workers. Making  sure that your products are picked properly and ready for dispatch on time. Before dawn Sas and his team start to prepare picking and packing all goods that are scheduled to be transported all around the globe.
Storing and organizing around 5.000 pallets can be quite  stressful.
Fortunately Sas is in an Olympic shape, running marathons is what he  likes to do and gives him the energy and proper mindset to go the extra mile where needed.
Thank you Sas for having you here.

Update Covid-19

Last week we sent a letter regarding covid-19 procedures. At this moment our policy remains the same. All measurements taken are followed accordingly. Our company is fully operational and accessible. We all share the same difficulties. Some of us will encounter big problems because of a tremendous decrease in business activities. Others will face enormous logistical challenges in order to be able to supply goods. Either way, we say to all of you, be safe stay healthy and look after each other.

Verwijs Import Export BV is proud to present our premium pasteurized crab meat, sourced exclusively by Taprobane Seafoods (TSF) from the idyllic island of Sri Lanka, the pearl of the Indian Ocean. Verwijs Import Export premium pasteurized crab meat is on track to become Asia’s first sustainable sourced blue swimming crab product, already having passed Pre- Assessment for MSC label.

In 2009, Sri Lanka and the blue swimming crab fishery in the north of Sri Lanka emerged from almost 30 years of civil conflict. TSF has worked hand in hand with local government authorities, research agencies and blue swimming crab fishing communities to ensure that Sri Lanka’s hitherto untouched blue swimming crab fishery is harvested sustainably. These fisheries strive to manage the resource, protect the environment and improve, as well as create new livelihoods. TSF commitment to sustainable fishing is supported by the National Fisheries Institute Crab Council.

TSF is the only company to have opened crab processing centres in the formerly conflict affected areas of northern Sri Lanka. TSF has created more than 1000 new jobs, in collaboration with the International Labour Organisation of the United Nations. New employment opportunities, mostly for women, generate daily income and help to rebuild shattered lives.
When you purchase Verwijs Import Export BV premium pasteurised crab meat, you are driving the demand for sustainably sourced seafood. You are saying to us: “pay your workers fairly and give a fair price to the fishermen”. You are saying to the fishermen: “harvest your resources responsibly, now and for future generations”. Thank you for buying Verwijs Import Export ‘s Premium Crab Meat.

The product will be available in a 454gr pasteurized cup as Lump Meat and Claw Meat.
