You want a supplier, not a broker
We buy at the landing ourselves. That means you can ask where a consignment came from and get a real answer.
Export: where we actually are.
We would rather have this conversation early and honestly than sell an overseas buyer a capability we have not finished building.
The position
Domestic today. Export next — properly, or not at all.
Metaglobe currently trades within Sri Lanka: sea crab, cuttlefish and Jaffna fish supplied wholesale and retail. Export is a stated objective of the company and work towards it is underway.
What we are not going to do is publish certification numbers we do not hold or quote container volumes we cannot yet fill. In seafood export, a supplier who overstates once is finished. So this page describes the groundwork rather than a finished capability — and we will update it as each piece lands.
Trading now: domestic
Export: in preparation
Groundwork
What we are building first.
An export buyer is not really buying fish. They are buying the certainty that the same fish arrives, to the same specification, on the same day, every time.
-
Done
Direct, repeatable sourcing
Established buying relationships at the Jaffna landings, so volume does not depend on whatever an intermediary happens to offer that morning.

Tightening the icing, grading and despatch routine to the standard an export consignment demands, and proving it on domestic orders first.
-
In progress

First overseas consignments
Beginning with buyers who want a supplier they can grow with, at volumes we can hold to without compromising the grade.
For overseas buyers
Worth talking to us early if…
You are building a line, not filling a gap
Our advantage is consistency over time, not a one-off spot lot. Early conversations let us build supply around your actual specification.
You value a straight answer
If we cannot yet meet your requirement, we will say so and tell you when we expect to. That is the whole basis on which we want to trade.
Overseas enquiries
Start the conversation before the capability is finished.
Tell us the species, specification, pack format and the volume you would want to run. We will give you a candid view of what we can support now and what we expect to support next.
