SHAMI Seafood is a family-owned business with over 30 years of experience in the seafood industry. Originally starting with door-to-door sales of fresh fish, we took a major step forward in 2001 by creating the SHAMI brand. This marked the beginning of our journey in importing our own popular products, including head-on deveined prawns, headless prawns, and crumbed prawns, all under the SHAMI label.

In 2011, we opened SHAMI Seafood Emporium in Belgravia Road, Cape Town, and later moved our operations to Kensington, Cape Town. Our store now serves as the central hub for our online store, where we’ve embraced digital transformation to make ordering more convenient for our customers.
This evolution allows us to reach more people, streamline our processes, and provide an easy, reliable online shopping experience. Whether you're ordering from home or on the go, our platform ensures that quality seafood and everyday goods are just a few clicks away.

We are proud to offer a unique cut and devein service, which has been available for the last 16 years at just R10 per box for customers who purchase from us. This service adds to the convenience of our customers and ensures they receive seafood ready to use for any occasion.

Additionally, we cater to caterers, restaurants, and businesses, providing wholesale and B2B services with access to high-quality products, delivered with reliability and efficiency. Alongside serving our local community, we have expanded our reach through national distribution and partnerships with wholesalers across the Western Cape and Gauteng.

At SHAMI, we’re committed to offering the best products at affordable prices. Our years of experience help us carefully source and deliver the highest quality seafood and everyday goods. We welcome customer feedback and strive to provide excellent service at every step.
