From our own fleet to your warehouse
Our fleet of 21 purse seiners lands around 50,000 MT of tuna a year — roughly 70% of the raw material we process — with the balance supplied by allied vessels that operate under our quality standards. That integration gives buyers traceability from the fishing ground to the finished case.
The Manta plant covers 59,129 m² and runs canning, pouching and pre-cooked frozen loin lines, supported by a laboratory that performs more than 400 histamine and salt analyses every day.
