About SeaBid

Connecting North Atlantic seafood producers with buyers worldwide through transparent, real-time auctions.

Our Mission

SeaBid was founded to bring transparency and efficiency to the premium seafood trade. By connecting Icelandic and Faroese producers directly with US buyers through live auctions, we eliminate intermediaries, ensure fair pricing, and provide complete traceability from catch to delivery.

Built on the Basta auction platform, SeaBid combines real-time bidding technology with cold chain logistics and sustainability certifications to create a marketplace where quality speaks for itself.

Our Values

Ocean to Plate

We believe the best seafood comes with complete transparency. Every lot on SeaBid carries a full chain-of-custody record from vessel to buyer.

Fair Pricing

Our auction model replaces opaque fixed contracts with transparent, competitive bidding — ensuring fair prices for both suppliers and buyers.

North Atlantic Heritage

Iceland and the Faroe Islands have centuries of fishing heritage in some of the cleanest, coldest waters on Earth. We bring that quality directly to the US market.

Sustainability First

Ocean freight produces 94% less CO₂ than air freight. Our suppliers hold ASC and MSC certifications, and we require full environmental accountability.

Basta

SeaBid runs on Basta's auction engine — providing real-time bidding, secure transactions, and scalable infrastructure for online auctions.
