Ricciardi Seafoods & Coldstores is a family business that began as a fresh fish shop and local supplier in Fremantle in 1986. Its founder, Natale Ricciardi, immigrated to Western Australia in the 1950's and made his living there as a full-time fisherman, beginning with the crayfish season in Fremantle and moving to Shark Bay during the prawn and scallop seasons.

With this heritage and strong work ethic, Ricciardi Seafoods has grown to a major wholesale and export player, supplying countries in both Europe and Asia as well as domestic markets in the Eastern States.

The company has enjoyed much success over the years, with its fishing vessels always among the top catchers, and has since relocated to their current premises , which boasts superior processing facilities as well as large coldstorage capabilities to produce its Premium Brand Products .
