CAWOODS

Cawoods(Fishcurers) Ltd has been a processor of dried salted fish for over 113 years. Originally based in Hull, and then with factories both Hull and Grimsby, The company ultimately consolidated all its production operations into the one site at Grimsby at the start of 2002... Salted Fish as a product has been in existence for centuries. Mediterranean peoples had always salted fish, while the ancient Vikings had air-dried white fish species- in both cases to preserve the products by removing moisture otherwise available to speed bacterial spoilage. Ultimately the two processes came together to produce a unique product with a long shelf-life at ambient conditions, plus favour enhancement from the salt and a satisfying meaty texture from the drying process.
