You've Been Here Before...

1. What do I want to cook?

You see a recipe for honey garlic salmon. You get excited. Time for a special dinner. Maybe you'll invite friends over. This is going to be amazing.

2. Where do I get good seafood?

Then you remember: The supermarket gamble. The palengke hassle. The last time you ordered online and it arrived thawed. Your stomach drops.

3. Should I just play it safe?

You check the seafood section at Landers. It looks... old. Doesn't smell quite right. You sigh. You buy chicken. Again. Safer. Boring.

4. Why does this keep happening?

Another weekend. Another missed opportunity to cook the meal you actually wanted. You're tired of settling for less.

What if there was a way to skip this entire cycle?

Every "Fresh" Seafood Seller in Metro Manila Is Lying to You

Not intentionally. But they're calling seafood "fresh" when it's been slowly degrading for days. Here's what nobody tells you: From the moment seafood leaves the ocean, a clock starts ticking.

We call it the Freshness Decay Clock.

Every hour your "fresh" seafood spends:

  • In transit from the coast to Metro Manila (6-8 hours)
  • Sitting on a market stall under warm lights (4-6 hours)
  • Waiting in a supermarket display case (12-24 hours)
  • Spending hours in transit (2-6 hours)

...it's dying.

That's why your "fresh" bangus smells malansa.
That's why your "fresh" salmon has that weird metallic taste.
That's why your last online order arrived thawed and ruined.
"Fresh" means it's not frozen yet.
It doesn't mean it's still good.

The Del Puerto End-to-End Cold Chain

We stop the Freshness Decay Clock at the source.

Matt, Founder of Del Puerto

Why We Built Del Puerto

My family has sourced seafood in Metro Manila for three generations.

I've spent my whole life watching home cooks struggle with the same frustrating cycle. The supermarket gamble. The palengke hassle. Online orders arriving thawed. Settling for chicken. Again.

I was tired of it.

So I built Del Puerto. To give you the same restaurant-quality seafood my family sources, delivered frozen to your door.

No more gambling. No more malansa. No more disappointment.

Just confidence.

My 8-year-old finally loved fish

I've tried for years to get my kids to eat seafood. Every time, the malansa smell made them gag. Then I tried Del Puerto's salmon. My daughter said, "Mom, this is yummy!" First time in 8 years I didn't have to fight her to finish her meal.

My dinner guests asked where I got it

I served Del Puerto's tiger prawns at a dinner party. Everyone asked where I sourced them. They thought I had a secret supplier. The quality is that good. I finally feel confident cooking seafood for guests.

Never going back to the supermarket

I used to waste so much time checking if the salmon at the supermarket looked okay. Half the time it didn't. Now I just order from Del Puerto and know it's going to be perfect. Game changer for busy weekends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before ordering

Is the seafood fresh or frozen? +

Frozen. And here's why that's actually better.

That "fresh" fish at the supermarket has been slowly degrading for 3-4 days. Ours is frozen at peak quality within hours of being caught. Which means it's actually fresher than "fresh."

Think of it like pressing pause the moment the seafood is at its absolute best. That's what proper freezing does.

What if my order arrives damaged or thawed? +

Contact us immediately. If your seafood arrives with a thawed core or is damaged in any way:

1. We replace your entire order (free of charge)
2. We refund 100% of your money
3. You keep the original product (no need to return it)

Just send us a photo and we'll handle it right away.

How should I store or defrost the seafood? +

Storage: Keep frozen at -18°C or colder. Our vacuum-sealed products last 3-6 months in a standard home freezer.

Defrosting: Transfer to the fridge 12-24 hours before cooking. For faster thawing, seal in a plastic bag and submerge in cold water for 1-2 hours. Never defrost at room temperature.

Why is Del Puerto more expensive than the palengke? +

We're not, when you factor in your time, traffic, and the risk of getting low-quality fish.

Plus, we guarantee quality. If it arrives thawed, you get everything free. That's peace of mind you can't get at the palengke.

The real cost is wasting money on seafood that turns malansa and ends up in the trash.

Do you deliver to my area? +
