All things fresh and local.

SAMMY’S WHOLESALE is a St. Petersburg, FL landmark for south Florida restauranteurs, country clubs and other wholesalers for all things fresh and local. Started in 2002 by husband and wife team, Katie and Emilio Sosa, with Masters in Marine Science from USF and Masters in Aquaculture from Auburn University, Sammy’s was created as an outlet for their love and commitment to the marine science realm. Invested in the local boats, quota, fishermen and farmers, Sammy’s works hard to choose product and educate all end users in an effort to best support the local industry. Sammy’s mission is to be the best secret ingredient in all our Tampa Bay restaurants.

Our Mission

Sammy’s Seafood is committed to delivering our clients to the best seafood and best service. Sammy’s achieves this through a constant pursuit for the best clients, service, sourcing and education we can deliver. Sammy’s follows Seawatch best practices and uses best management practices to help maintain and sustain our oceans, improve stock management, and protect our livelihood and the local seafood industry for better long term socio-economic benefits.

Sammy's TRACE™ Program

We believe that educating our customers as to why we’ve chosen each supplier is just as important. After each fresh fish passes our quality assurance inspection, we record the name of the boat, Captain and catch date, assign a 3-letter code for its fish species, and tag it with a Sammy’s TRACE™ key card. Once tagged, our customers can trace their fish from catch to plate.
