The ultimate in quality seafood since 1942

Zeeland’s Roem is part of the Roem Group, Europe’s largest seafood processor with premises in the Netherlands and Germany. Mussels, oysters and prawns play the leading roles.

Mussels

With Europe’s cleanest seawater all around us the Zeeland’s Roem factory takes the pick of the mussel crop, delivered fresh from the Oosterschelde to our quayside landing facility for processing from July to the following April. Elsewhere in Yerseke Zeeland’s Roem has a second factory used for the production of preserved foods and chilled fresh products including mussels and a wide range of mussel specialities, a perfect base for a main meal or a tasty snack.

Mussels

Fresh mussels

It’s the sourcing that sets our Zeeland’s Roem fresh mussels apart. Mussels bearing the Zeeland’s Roem label come exclusively from the pure, nutrient-rich waters of the Oosterschelde and the Waddenzee. Roem van Yerseke B.V. guarantee that the mussels we process meet the very highest quality standards.

Zeeland’s Roem fresh mussels are available in a range of package types and sizes. Just contact us for further information.

Cooked mussel meat

Fresh-cooked mussel meat is a quality product presenting infinite culinary possibilities. Available both deep-frozen and chilled fresh, our fresh mussels are cooked under expert supervision.

Once the mussel meat is separated from the shell it is inspected and selected both mechanically and by eye, then packed in a protected atmosphere in trays of different sizes or deep-frozen in plastic bags or in bulk. Just contact us for further information.

Oysters

Flat oyster

The queen among oysters is unique and has a chic appearance. This round, flat oyster is cultivated with a great deal of care and love. The overall culturing process can take about five years. This oyster is not available during the spawning season from April to September.
Flat oysters are available in various sizes, indicated by zeroes. The oysters range from 2/0 to 6/0 and even 6/0 luxury; the more zeroes there are, the bigger the oyster! Read the story behind this oyster.

Autumn Oyster

Oysters

Grevelingen creuse

The Grevelingen oyster from Zeeland is very accessible and one of the highlights of the Crassostrea gigas family. As you might guess from the name, it grows in the Grevelingen lake. This oyster, which is cultivated on the lake bed, has become renowned both at home and abroad for its quality and taste.

The Grevelingen oyster is available in three sizes – categories I, II and III (where III is the smallest). Read the story behind this oyster.

Oysters

Creuse

A no-nonsense oyster for every occasion. It is a rugged, elongated and irregularly shaped bottom-cultured oyster of the Crassostrea gigas family. They grow to become a commercially viable oyster in two to three years. This type is often used in gratins.

The creuse is available in three sizes – categories I, II and III (where III is the smallest). Read the story behind this oyster.

Oysters

Amuse de Zélande

The name of this quintessential Zeeland oyster says it all: a refined shellfish from Zeeland’s waters. In the Oosterschelde, this off-bottom oyster grows to become a tasty treat from the sea. The growth of this oyster is guided from the very beginning, which is how it gets its superb shape.

This small but excellent beauty is available in one size. Read the story behind this oyster.

Oysters

Aquanostra

Sunny southern Portugal is responsible for the fine character of the wonderful Aquanostra, an oyster with Zeeland roots. This off-bottom oyster is reared in the Setúbal delta. The shell is less irregular than that of the average creuse, which gives its shape a very different outline.

The Aquanostra is supplied in one size. An appealing size for every oyster lover. Read the story behind this oyster.

Oysters

Tabl’eau de Zélande

This so-called ‘table oyster’ is cultured off-bottom in Zeeland. The oysters are spawned in the nutrient-rich waters of the Oosterschelde and this is also where they are grown. They are cared for intensively while they grow, ensuring an attractive-looking shell that can be shucked easily.

This Zeeland variant of Crassostrea gigas is available in a single size. Read the story behind this oyster.

Prawns

Roem van Yerseke provides for many different types of prawns, from the Dutch coast to the Far East, from the warm Caribbean to the chilly Northern waters. Roem van Yerseke offers prawns using their Zeeland’s Roem brand. Outside the Benelux countries the prawns mostly carry the Lacor brand.

Prawns

Dutch shrimps

In the world of prawns it’s the Dutch shrimp that bears the crown. Also known as Grey Shrimp or North Sea Shrimp, these are relatively small pink coloured crustaceans.
Our Zeeland’s Roem Grey Shrimps are cooked on board the fishing vessel immediately after the catch. The quickest route takes them to our own peeling facility where experienced hands peel them in a tightly controlled hygienic environment.

They are then packed or deep frozen in the high-risk zone in our IFS certified factory. Just contact us for further information.

Prawns

Tropical prawns

Roem van Yerseke is highly selective when it comes to the purchase of tropical prawns. Quality is paramount at all times, and only the very best prawns are purchased for packaging at our factory in Yerseke. Our extensive range includes pink prawns, jumbo prawns, tiger prawns and shrimps. Our purchase specifications greatly exceed the European Gap standard, guaranteeing quality, and environmental and social sustainability. Many of the products carry ASC certification.

Our tropical prawns are supplied deep frozen or packaged in a protective atmosphere. Just contact us for further information.

Lobster

Eating lobster is a culinary experience. Lobster is mostly eaten in a restaurant because most people are not equipped to prepare this delicacy at home. Zeeland’s Roem changes that with the introduction of the fresh prepared lobster in the “à la minute” range. Building on the success of our Mussels à la Minute we decided to expand the concept with this luxury product. The result is a beautiful fresh lobster that can be served cold or hot.

A real fresh taste sensation, ready to serve in minutes. A half lobster makes a great first course, or serve the whole lobster as a main course. Just contact us for further information.

Scampi Brochettes

Quality and convenience in one! Based on tropical prawns this flavoursome dish is ideal as a starter, a component in a main meal, a tapa or as a snack with drinks. You don’t need to fire up the barbeque to enjoy Zeeland’s Roem scampi brochettes, they are ready after just a few minutes in the microwave. The sleek skin packaging contains four brochettes, and this luxurious treat is available in two flavors.

The mouthfeel of these prawns is perfection. Just contact us for further information.

Various

Zeeland’s Roem can supply everything you need for a delicious and easily prepared seafood meal. The classic meal of mussels calls for a suitable pan, and Zeeland’s Roem has the very thing for you. Carefully selected mussel herbs make preparation even easier, and our other products like prawns, crayfish meat or breaded mussels are transformed in no time into a superb culinary display. Try our Chuka Wakame (Japanese seaweed salad) for a fine finishing touch.

Various

Chuka Wakame

Chuka Wakame is a most unusual fresh green salad, a Japanese recipe using blanched seaweed with a marinade of sesame oil, sesame seeds, soy sauce and a dash of red pepper. Originally an accompaniment for sushi and sashimi, it also goes wonderfully with raw oysters or prawns.

Sweet, salty and with a hint of spice. Just contact us for further information.

Various

Fruits de mer

Producing a wide range of shellfish as we do, it seems only logical to combine these into a delicious mix. We add cockles and squid to our mix of mussels and prawns to present a complete seafood cocktail. We source our ingredients with care, selecting for flavour as well as colour.

An exciting product to serve hot or cold. Just contact us for further information.

Various

Crayfish

Crayfish are increasingly popular, which is no surprise to us as they have so many uses, from snacks to main meals. Crayfish are healthy and tasty. Crayfish differ in taste and texture from prawns, but you can use them in similar ways. The striking colouration of the crayfish meat raises this ingredient to a whole new level.

These crustaceans are supplied ready for use. Ideal in cold dishes but also wonderful in soups or with pasta. Just contact us for further information.

Various

Breaded mussels

Breaded mussels can be used for many different occasions . These deep-frozen mussels are herby and crispy. The cooked mussels are battered, pre-baked and immediately individually frozen. The result is a superb crispy mussel, with the real mussel taste. This is a product that will always merit a place in the freezer.

A delicious party treat, a stunning starter and of course it makes a great main course with salad and chips. Just contact us for further information.

Various

Mussel pans & herbs

Zeeland’s Roem mussel pans are specially designed to cook mussels. It is important that mussels are heated up rapidly to keep the meat tender, that is why the bottom of our mussel pan is thin. Because the shells open during cooking, they need extra space. That accounts for the special shape of the pan lid, which also makes an ideal receptacle for the empty shells.

Zeeland’s Roem Mussel Herbs are the ideal way to add extra flavour! Just contact us for further information.

Our own hatchery

Roem van Yerseke have been researching the breeding and cultivation of seafood on and offshore for many years now, resulting in the construction of our own unique hatchery for crustaceans and shellfish. Our investigations and laboratory experiments have provided us with a wealth of knowledge about the multi-facetted task of breeding shellfish and crustaceans, eventually resulting in a breakthrough in the cultivation of a number of species. Have a look at our hatchery video.
