Our Aquaculture
OUR AQUACULTURE.
Just off the coast of the Coronado islands, near the US border, lies our sophisticated aquaculture operation that has grown to over 60 large pens. Each pen is deeper and wider than most in the world and is carefully monitored with cameras, advanced technologies for counting, and underwater rovs to check the health of each fish. Live fish and bait swim in and out of our pens and that consist of carefully sorted bluefin depending on age and size.
We’re proud to have highly skilled engineers, scientists, divers, and aquaculture specialists on board over 25 vessels. Over the past 20 years we have honed in our operation to precise practices, enabling optimum gains and very little inefficiencies. Our goal is to bring to market over twice the weight in bluefin, than we harvest from the ocean. This another component of sustainability that we are proud of.
