Shore Catch Gains Planning Approval + the "Super Shredder"

I am pleased to advise that Shore Catch gained formal planning approval from the City of Wanneroo for the establishment of various commercial uses at 7 / 65 Buckingham Drive Wangara.  The approval allows Industry (fish processing, amongst others), Warehouse (storage and distribution of goods), Showroom (display of goods for retail sale, including second hand goods) and ancillary offices (to conduct my technical consulting business also).  The approved uses are shown on the below floor plan.

 

We now have possession of the premises and will slowly fit it out.  We want to ensure that anyone that visits will have a good experience so we will formally open when the shop, and product range, is ready (the below image shows the start of the showroom).  I do look forward to putting on a sausage sizzle for Members when we do open up, and meeting you in person.

 

In another development we have commissioned the manufacture of the “Super Shredder”.  This machine builds on all of the previous work in evaluating fish frame reduction to 10mm x 10mm pieces.  The motor, gearbox and drive cogs are shown below, with more updates in future posts.  There are a lot of uses for “the shred”.

 

A number of Members have asked me about “Shredder for Hire”.  The new machine will process hundreds of kilos per hour so there is the potential to shred frozen fish waste for Members with a “reasonable” fee to cover costs.  I just wonder if this would be a service that people are interested in?

We hope to open by early December, and look forward to seeing you if you are ever in the locality.

Mick

Shredder

 Not sure about hiring the shredder for personal use if you are going to be selling Burley in the shop. I would be thinking of swapping fish frames etc for some of your burley. 

As i'm sick of filling the freezer with frames etc and waiting for bin day. Always good to get a supply for the cray season but then cray heads start to take over..Lol

Whatever works for you. Will be looking forward to opening day.
