Where to buy wholesale frozen foods in Lagos
In Lagos, you can buy frozen foods wholesale from cold room depots, licensed importers, local poultry processors, and online wholesalers like Wigmore Wholesale. Frozen fish is the biggest seller. Frozen chicken and turkey should come from local processors, because importing frozen poultry into Nigeria is banned.

How to check frozen food quality
Feel the carton
It should be rock hard. Soft corners or wet cartons mean it has started thawing.
Look for big ice crystals
Thick frost or ice inside the pack usually means the food thawed and was refrozen.
Smell and colour
Fish should have clear eyes and no sour smell. Chicken should be pale pink, not grey.
Check labels
Packaged frozen foods should show a packing date and, for processed items, a NAFDAC number.
