Sustainable fishing
Our fishing vessels use the purse seine fishing method to capture pelagic fish species that form shoals close to the surface. The fishing technique has a very low impact on the environment and has low levels of bycatch. The mesh is large enough to allow juvenile fish to escape.
Eco-friendly and people-friendly
The fishing operation is focused on conducting business in an eco-friendly and people-friendly manner. Preserving the environment and its resources by building a socially responsible and sustainable business is at the core of our values.
In line with legislation
We strive to comply with all relevant legislation regarding the operation of a fishing vessel in South African waters, such as the provisions of the Marine Pollution Act, the Marine Living Resources Act and the Merchant Shipping Act.
