Squid Brand (Thai Gold) is the benchmark fish sauce for professional Asian cuisine. The amber, umami-rich liquid has been the pantry staple of Southeast Asian restaurants, commercial kitchens, and food manufacturers for decades — a one-ingredient flavour foundation that no competing product replaces with equal results. At 4.5L per bottle, a single pallet delivers 1,080 litres of finished fish sauce ready for immediate use in marinades, dipping sauces, stir-fry bases, and dressings.
The 80-case pallet format is engineered for serious volume operations: high-output commercial kitchens cooking Thai, Vietnamese, Filipino, or fusion Asian cuisine at scale, food distributors supplying restaurant accounts across a region, and food manufacturers incorporating fish sauce as a consistent ingredient in prepared products. A single pallet typically covers 6-12 months of consumption for a high-volume restaurant, eliminating the overhead of repeated small restocking orders.

- Freight delivery to commercial address — one shipment, full season supply secured

Amani's Take · Bulk Procurement Lead @ ChickenPieces
"Squid Brand at pallet scale is the procurement move for any operation running high-volume Asian cuisine. 240 jugs of 4.5L covers a full restaurant for 6-12 months without a reorder — that's one freight delivery replacing a year of supplier calls, delivery coordination, and stock anxiety."
Frequently Asked Questions
What is squid fish sauce made of?
Squid Brand fish sauce is made from fermented anchovies, salt, and water, with a small amount of sugar. The anchovies are salted and fermented for up to 18 months, producing a deep amber liquid with intense umami. This traditional process gives Squid Brand its distinctive flavour that chefs rely on for authentic Southeast Asian dishes.
Does squid brand fish sauce have shellfish?
Squid Brand fish sauce is made from anchovy extract, which is a fish, not a shellfish. However, because it is produced in facilities that may also process shellfish, there is a potential for cross-contamination. The label indicates 'Contains fish' and advises checking with the manufacturer if you have severe shellfish allergies.
How long does squid brand fish sauce last?
Squid Brand fish sauce has a shelf life of 24 months from the production date when unopened and stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, it should be refrigerated or kept in a cool area and used within 12 months for best quality. The bottle will have a best-before date printed on it.
