Meet Steve Costi
Steve Costi’s Seafood was established in 1985, with the first store opening in the world-
class David Jones food hall on Market Street, Sydney. 36 years later, Steve has opened
many stores and supplied seafood Australia-wide, and the company has recently launched
its online seafood store offering home delivery in Sydney and Canberra.
Family-run business Costi’s is renowned as a trusted name within the industry. Steve’s
father opened a fish shop in Lakemba in 1958.
Steve recalls,
"Much of my childhood was spent working in the shop with mum and dad. When I was about 18, dad thought it was important that I get some solid experience, so he sent me to my brother’s set up at the Sydney Fish Markets to work and learn. I spent several years there cutting my teeth in the industry, before eventually launching Steve Costi’s Seafood, which I continued to grow over the next 36 years.”
