Why Oman
Sourcing seafood from Oman
Oman's long Arabian Sea coastline supports a substantial fisheries sector, spanning small-scale coastal fishing to larger processing operations exporting fresh fish, frozen shrimp, and prepared tuna products. The country's fishing grounds benefit from the seasonal upwelling that makes the Arabian Sea one of the region's most productive marine fisheries.
Regional buyers — led by Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Kuwait — import Omani seafood across fresh, frozen, and prepared-product categories, reflecting Oman's role as a nearby Gulf supplier for both retail and food-service demand.
