Svitlana Zhadko

Co-Founder, Head of Import department

About

Hi! I'm Svitlana — an entrepreneur with hands-on experience in the seafood industry. I co-founded a fish import business and built the supply chain from the ground up — from sourcing and negotiating with suppliers to managing logistics and customs clearance. I know how to find reliable partners, secure strong terms, and ensure consistent, high-quality deliveries. With trusted contacts in exporting countries and a deep understanding of local market needs, I help companies access premium seafood directly and efficiently. Currently, I’m developing SvitFish — a business that supports seafood processors and wholesalers with smart, transparent, and profitable import solutions. Open to networking, partnerships, and new opportunities in international seafood trade!
