- I have recently found that I have a massive interest in seafood and currently know the right people to back me up on my future plans. I am currently living in Thailand or have been here for 5 years. I was in China for a while and noticed how much the Asians love imported seafood from other countries. Right now I have a request for abalone, White mussels, Crayfish ... all the famous South African seafood. Which they don't have on this side. Can you export to Thailand ? what do you charge for a Kilo ? I need a catalog with prices. Have they been approved ? I am also a fellow South African who migrated to Asia 6 years ago. Is your farm located far from Jacob's bay ? thanks a lot. Hope to hear from you soon . David
