Frozen seafood Across three oceans.
Baixian Trade is the global trading arm of Baixian Group — a vertically integrated Greater China seafood corporation. Across three oceans, six decades, and forty-four markets, we move Illex argentinus, Dosidicus gigas, Cololabis saira, and selected Pacific pelagic species — backed by an in-house research function and contract operations spanning Taiwan and mainland China.
A trade team built for depth,
not just reach.
Vertically integrated.
Research-led.
Most seafood traders sit between fishery and buyer with limited visibility in either direction. Baixian Trade is built differently. Through Baixian Group, we operate processing, cold storage, and trade execution as owned assets, with origin sourcing through a 30+ vessel contract network across Taiwan and mainland China and shore-processing partnerships in Peru and Chile.
That structure is what lets us speak to a Spanish foodservice buyer about Patagonian cohort dynamics, or a Japanese trading house about NPFC quota policy, with primary operational data — not industry rumor.

What we trade.
Forty-four markets,
one accountable counterparty.
Across forty-four markets, the same desk handles the quote, the contract, and the post-shipment review — in your language and your time zone. Buyers speak with the analyst who set the spec and tracks the regulator, not a routed call to a generic export trader.
Traceable from
vessel to vessel.
Every container we move is backed by a paper trail running vessel-by-vessel through to port-of-discharge. Vessel monitoring on 100% of contract fleet partners, EU IUU catch certification on every consignment, and active alignment with the GDST traceability standard.
Three ways to start.
