Seafood Preparation Process
South Bermondsey
At SUK IT Seafood, we take pride in a meticulous seafood preparation process that reflects our Nigerian coastal heritage and commitment to quality. From sourcing the day’s catch at Billingsgate Market to cleaning, seasoning, and cooking, every detail is handled with care in our South Bermondsey kitchen. This ensures every tray, boil, and platter delivers premium freshness, authentic heritage flavour, and consistent excellence.
Fresh Sourcing from Billingsgate Market
Each week, our team hand-selects prawns, crab, and lobster from Billingsgate Market, London’s most trusted seafood supplier. We only choose ingredients delivered that morning, guaranteeing the finest quality for your order. This local partnership supports sustainability, transparency, and taste, giving South London seafood lovers access to restaurant-grade ingredients prepared in a neighbourhood kitchen.
Our chefs use these market-fresh ingredients to create every dish on our Menu, ensuring the link between sourcing and flavour is always clear.
Our Preparation Process
Behind every seafood boil or steamed dish lies a careful process designed to protect freshness and flavour:
- Selection: Only live or freshly delivered seafood is chosen.
- Cleaning: All crustaceans are deveined and cleaned thoroughly, ensuring every bite is smooth and fresh.
- Marination: Ingredients are seasoned in our signature heritage flavour sauce, inspired by traditional Nigerian coastal recipes.
- Cooking: Meals are prepared to order on Saturdays in our fully certified Southwark kitchen, guaranteeing peak quality.
- Packaging: Once cooked, dishes are sealed for freshness and ready for safe collection or delivery.
This process follows Food Standards Agency guidance for hygiene and temperature control, ensuring every meal meets strict quality standards.
Our Signature Heritage Flavour
At the heart of every meal is our heritage flavour blend. Inspired by Nigeria’s coastal cuisine, it combines aromatic spices, citrus, and subtle heat to enhance the natural sweetness of seafood. This unique mix sets SUK IT Seafood apart and has helped make us one of South Bermondsey’s favourite seafood kitchens.

Sustainability and Quality Standards
We believe fresh seafood should also be responsibly sourced. Working directly with Billingsgate Market vendors allows us to trace each product’s origin, minimise waste, and maintain consistency. All preparation follows UK food safety regulations, and we use eco-friendly packaging to reduce our footprint. Every order reflects our promise to serve the community with care, quality, and respect for the sea.
From Our Kitchen to Your Table
Once prepared, your meal is ready for collection from our cloud kitchen. Customers can pre-order throughout the week, then collect or enjoy delivery via trusted partners. Whether you’re planning a weekend treat or catering for a family event, our efficient process ensures freshness every time.
