  • Far West Scallops is a family owned and run Australian company, established in 1983 as a specialist scallop fisher and packer. Far West is currently the largest packer of scallops in Australia.

    The scallop caught in Western Australia is the Ballot’s Saucer Scallop (Ylistrum balloti) a species unique to Australia and New Caledonia.

    This species has a different flavour profile and texture to other scallops; it is renowned for having a fresh, slightly salty and sweet flavour with a pleasantly firm texture,  without being stringy or tough. These scallops present a little flatter than other scallops and have an attractive ivory white colour.

    Far West products are served in leading restaurants and hotels in Australia and Asia. 

    All scallops packed by Far West are sustainably sourced and wild caught in the pristine waters of Western Australia. Fishing areas accessed by the Far West fleet include the MSC certified Abrolhos Islands, Shark Bay and the South Coast of Western Australia. 

    Far West products are packed in a purpose-built factory located just south of Fremantle in Western Australia. The Far West factory was opened in 1998 and is still  considered one of Australia’s finest seafood processing facilities.

    We are located on the edge of the Great Southern Ocean. This gives us access to one of the last remaining healthy, wild resources of abalone. 

    Abalone is not only a delicacy with the highest prestige throughout Asia, but also with Australian Aborigines who for thousands of years have enjoyed this shellfish.

    Our purpose is to bring rare items such as abalone, which is rich in tradition, culture and health into the 21st century by giving the consumer the opportunity to share in the experience of this delicacy.

    For Kansom, it is important that you have the genuine experience with minimal processing aids or chemicals – pure is the best. Established in 1985, we are driven by innovation and passion.
