The name Guyton has been synomonous in the fishing industry for over 20 years. The business was founded by Arthur Guyton in and subsequently operated by Arthurs son Kevin & his wife Lyn up until recently.

The landmark Gutyon's fresh fish store on the Nelson waterfront has been operating since 2002 and today remains an iconic Nelson business. A very successful second store was opened in the Richmond Mall, Nelson in 2006.

In addition we stock fresh salmon, tuna, smoked fish and mussels and a huge range of frozen products such as prawns, shrimps & squid. In season whitebait, crayfish, muttonbirds, scallops, and oysters will be found. You know that when you come to Guyton's, there will be plenty of choice!
