Crab seed or market crab? Start with the purpose of your purchase

What happens after you buy?

Crab seed is purchased for further growing. Market crab is selected for consumption or sale as a finished product. A photograph of a large crab, or the word “crab” on its own, does not establish that a buyer and supplier mean the same thing.

When making an enquiry, say that you need crab seed for grow-out, where your farm is located and when you expect to receive it. If the type or size is undecided, describe what you know and what you need clarified.

What a photograph cannot confirm

An illustration can introduce the product, but it does not verify the species, actual size or condition of a specific batch. Several viewing angles do not replace a specification. For a particular batch, ask for images or documents that the supplier confirms relate to that batch.

• The product and intended use: crab seed for further growing.
• The requested size, how it is measured and the unit used.
• Estimated quantity, receiving location and preferred date range.
• Which details are confirmed and which remain open.

Make the enquiry easy to understand

For example: “I am looking for crab seed for grow-out in …, with receipt around … and an estimated quantity of … in … units. I would like to discuss size and delivery arrangements.” Leave unknown details open rather than presenting a guess as a confirmed requirement.
