Consumers

For any of us who’ve spent time in the Northeast, we’ve developed a strange but strong affinity for the region. A type of brethren earned equally from cold winter mornings and rainy spring days - to that of a perfect summer evening, or crisp fall afternoon. The beauty of our natural environment  yearns for a lifetime.  Certain things have a knack of spurring those memories - food being at the top of the list.

Fresh, delicious seafood synonymous with the coastal communities of the North Atlantic is an experience more should enjoy and celebrate together. As more of us become aware to how healthy and clean this food is, we see it as a chance to cast new memories, more often.  Hingeline delivers supply of that top quality seafood from the best waters in the world to those seeking to reflect on some of the best times of your life, or those seeking a great experience, or those looking for ways to eat better, get healthier and have less impact.
