The leading prepared frozen seafood producer in the country announced the debut on the new Air-fried prepared seafood line-up through a press release, with Jake Holbrook, Vice President of Marketing at Gorton’s Seafood, saying:

“The most exciting part about these new products is that they’ve already been air fried before they get to the consumer.”

Briefing customers about the new Air-fried prepared seafood line-up, Holbrook added:

“You don’t need to own an air fryer to enjoy all of the benefits of light, super crispy breaded seafood, and increasing accessibility to this type of product is very important to us. Over the last few years, the interest in air fried food has skyrocketed, so we wanted to develop products that deliver the taste and crunch that today’s consumers are craving while maintaining the quality that people expect from our brand.”
