Deep-Water Harvest

Line-Caught Off Rodrigues

Our fishermen navigate the deep ocean swells of the Mascarene Ridge, using traditional handline methods to harvest yellowfin tuna. This selective technique eliminates bycatch and preserves the delicate marine ecosystem.

Each catch is instantly transferred to our specialized cold-chain units, maintaining a precise temperature from the moment of harvest until it reaches our facility.
