Your brand, manufactured by the people who catch the fish
Eurofish manufactures private label canned tuna, tuna pouches, mackerel and wet pet food for retailers, distributors and brand owners — the same certified plants and the same laboratory control as our own brands.
Vertical integration is your margin
Most private label suppliers buy raw material on the open market. We catch it: 21 vessels landing around 50,000 MT a year, processed in our own plants. That means firm pricing through the season, guaranteed allocation when raw material tightens, and one accountable counterparty from vessel to container.
Our own brands — Manabí, Amares, Poseidon and Captain Barbatún — run on the same lines, so the recipes, QC routines and packaging capabilities your brand needs are already in daily production.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order for private label?
Typically one full container per reference for canned products; pet food programmes are quoted per format. Mixed containers can bridge first orders.
Can you match an existing recipe?
Yes — send the target product and our R&D matches cutting, liquid and sensory profile, documented in pre-production samples.
Who owns the recipe and artwork?
You do. Specifications developed for your brand remain confidential to your programme.
Which markets do you already ship to?
Europe, North America and Latin America for food and pet food; Asian markets are served with market-specific documentation.
