On Saturday 30 November, Bronwyn and Matt Calder officially opened the doors to FISHI Proserpine and felt a warm welcome from the local and surrounding community as well as Member for Whitsunday Amanda Camm.
“The response has been fantastic!” shared Bronwyn.
“There was much anticipation, and we have been overwhelmed with how supportive the community has been.”
With Matt himself holding well over twenty-five years of experience in the fishing and seafood industry, the pair will soon celebrate ten years of business with a FISHI store located on Hamilton Island, Cannonvale, and now Proserpine.
FISHI proudly provides its valued customers with a 100% Australian sourced seafood menu in all its stores, with both Bronwyn and Matt committed to lobbying for businesses to label the “Country of Origin” across their products.
With Christmas fast approaching, Bronwyn and Matt advise their customers to beat the rush of the silly season, offering plenty of frozen, locally caught prawns and bugs ready to grab and get ahead of the late December scramble.
As the weather turns around, FISHI Whitsundays will soon stock a variety of fresh fish, also able to be frozen and stored until Christmas day as well as a selection of other highly sought after seafood delights.
“Customers can come into the shop and pick from fresh Cooked Mudcrab, Lobsters flown in from Tasmanian, Oysters, Mussels and an array of fish and Homemade Sauces,” added Bronwyn.
Bronwyn and Matt invite the community to pop in and visit their new store located at 174 Main Street, Proserpine.
