United Fish Auctions N.V. (UFA) is an umbrella organisation
for activities in the fisheries sector. UFA forms the second
fish auction in the Netherlands, with branches in Scheveningen,
Colijnsplaat and Stellendam.
UFA was formed in 2000 comprising local authority fish auctions
in Stellendam, Scheveningen and Colijnsplaat. The shares in
the enterprise are held by the boroughs of Goedereede, 's
Gravenhage and Noord - Beveland.
In addition to these branches, there are also partnerships
with fish auctions in IJmuiden, Thyborøn (Denmark)
and Gilleleje (Denmark).
The auctions are able to guarantee a constant supply of quality
fresh fish. The auctions mediate in the sale of fish via an
international electronic auction system. Using internet, traders
throughout Europe can place bids just as quickly as the buyers
in the sale room at the auction.
