Why we exist

Mauritanian seafood is world-class. The way it has been sold often wasn’t.

Experienced buyers have learned to be careful with West African supply: grading that changes between samples and shipment, origin that is hard to trace, and middlemen who are gone when there is a claim. We understand that caution.

Pez Fresco Group was built to remove those risks. We are a single, accountable operation. Our own vessels harvest the catch, our own plant processes and freezes it, and our own team loads your container. There is no anonymous chain of brokers between the sea and your order, just one company whose name is on every carton.

Vertically integrated

One company. Every step. No hand-offs you can’t see.

Most quality problems in frozen seafood start where responsibility changes hands. We removed those hand-offs.

01

Harvest

Caught by our own vessels and crews, so we know where, when and how every lot was fished.

02

Handling

Chilled and handled with care from the moment it lands on deck to protect texture and yield.

03

Processing

Sorted, graded and packed in our own facility to the sizes and formats your market needs.

04

Freezing

Frozen at origin and held in our cold chain, so quality is locked in close to the catch.

05

Shipping

Loaded by our team into 40ft reefers at Nouakchott or Nouadhibou, on EXW, FOB or CIF terms.

Why Mauritania

Some of the most productive fishing waters on earth.

Off the Mauritanian coast, the Canary Current pushes cold, nutrient-rich water up from the deep. That upwelling feeds an extraordinary density of marine life, from small pelagics to the octopus that Mauritania is known for worldwide.

Cold-water upwelling
Nutrient-rich currents support exceptional abundance and quality.
Banc d’Arguin
A protected UNESCO World Heritage nursery ground that sustains the wider fishery.
Close to key markets
Short sea routes to Europe and North Africa, with direct access to West African and Gulf trade.
