Golden Wave Seafood is a U.S.–Colombian seafood sourcing and import company. We specialize in premium yellowfin tuna and a growing range of fresh and frozen seafood from vetted partners across multiple origins, as a single, reliable point of contact for U.S. buyers.
We operate on both sides of the business — sourcing at origin and import operations in the U.S. — ensuring direct oversight and consistency at every step, from the water to the final delivery.
Led by Its Founder
Golden Wave Seafood is led directly by its founder, with hands-on involvement in sourcing, compliance, and client relationships. We personally verify shipments at origin, in Colombia or wherever we source.
A U.S.–Colombian dual citizen, working between both countries to manage sourcing, compliance, and delivery.

Sourcing & Cold Chain
We source from carefully selected processors and exporters across multiple origins. Partners are reviewed for plant registrations, certifications, and traceability documentation before we work together.
Our products move through a controlled cold chain designed to preserve freshness and product integrity through to final destination, with documentation maintained by lot.
Quality & Compliance
We work with FDA-registered processing facilities operating under Seafood HACCP standards, with full chain-of-custody documentation for each shipment.
Where applicable, shipments comply with NOAA's Seafood Import Monitoring Program (SIMP), with catch and traceability data reported and documented as required for entry into the U.S. market.
Product testing, including histamine and heavy-metals analysis where applicable, is performed by our partners' in-house laboratories or by qualified external labs.
Our hands-on involvement lets us stay close to every partner and verify that these standards are met.

Export
Fresh products travel by air to major U.S. airports. Frozen products ship by air or by refrigerated container, depending on volume and destination. Transit times vary by origin, and we confirm timing and logistics with every quote.
Colombia Program
When we source from Colombia, we oversee the process directly: artisanal wild-caught yellowfin tuna from Colombia's coastal waters, handled under strict cold-chain control from the moment of capture.
We work with fishing communities and associations registered with AUNAP (Colombia's national fisheries authority) and processing facilities holding INVIMA sanitary registration. Every catch is logged at the point of landing — fisherman, vessel, AUNAP registration number, catch time, and time to ice.
Shipped fresh by air, Colombian yellowfin typically reaches any major U.S. airport within 48 hours of capture, with cold-chain integrity maintained throughout.
