Browse and Search for Products
Gorton's of Gloucester products are broken into basic categories, like "Lobster" and "Shellfish". When you click on each category (left top) a list of products within the section is displayed. The easiest way though to find a product on our web site is to search:
Use the search at the top of each page by entering keywords. E.g "live lobster". When searching you do not need to use the "and" for more than one word. The search results will be listed by relevance to your query - e.g. products with both the words "lobster" and "clam" in any of their name or description will be listed first. Then any items with either lobster or clam will be listed. Click on a product name and you will proceed to a detailed product page.
