Like-for-like position against ports selling the same species
Competitive Position ⓘMarket average is calculated from ports selling the same species today — your port is excluded from the average. Data varies by port: Peterhead shares price ranges only (no volume), Brixham and Newlyn share prices with weight, Lerwick shares prices with volume but no minimums, Scrabster shares price ranges with box counts. Grade systems differ, so we compare top-grade averages. Species where you're the only port reporting are shown separately.

This dashboard is built around your data. We can add or remove metrics based on what matters to you — volume, vessel landings, buyer activity, grade breakdowns, or anything else. Tell us what you'd like to see.
Thanks — we've received your request and will be in touch.
Ask Quayside
Ask Quayside
Ask me anything about today's fish prices, trends, or market opportunities.
There are three ways to send us your daily prices:
1. Upload a file — go to
Add Prices
and upload your price sheet directly. We accept XLS, XLSX, CSV, and PDF formats.
2. Email it in — download the XLSX template from the upload page,
fill it in, and email it to prices@quayside.fish.
3. Fill in the form — use the
manual submission form
to type prices in directly. No file needed.
Emailing prices@quayside.fish is the fastest method —
we process incoming emails automatically.
Confirm the extracted data
After you upload or email a price sheet, we extract the data and send you
a confirmation link. The confirm page shows a table of every species, grade,
and price we extracted.
Click Looks good to publish immediately, or
Fix something to edit any values before publishing.
If we don't hear back within 2 hours, the data is auto-published as-is.
Reading Competitive Position
The scoreboard at the top shows how many species you have the
best UK price for, how many are above market,
and how many are below market.
In the per-species bar chart, the red marker shows the UK average across
all ports. Your bar shows where you land. A Best UK badge
means you have the highest price in the country for that species today.
Click any species row to expand it and see which specific ports
you're ahead of or behind.
Smart Alerts
Smart Alerts automatically flag four types of event:
Price Spike — a species price moved significantly
vs recent history. New Species — a species appeared that wasn't in
yesterday's data. Species Gap — a species you normally sell is missing
from today's data. Market Position — you've moved above or below the
UK average for a key species.
Check alerts each morning before the auction. No action needed —
they're informational only.
Insights
The Insights section provides plain-English market commentary about
your port's performance. It covers what's performing well, where you
stand vs other ports, and what's changed recently.
Use the tabs to switch between Today,
This Week, and This Month for
different time horizons.
Sharing & exporting your data
Export CSV — download up to 365 days of your port's
price history as a CSV file. Find this in the Tools section of the sidebar.
Share your data — coming soon. You'll be able to
download a branded PDF of your day's prices to share with buyers,
with a link for them to access the full trade dashboard.
