Our

History

Our company started on March 30, 1993, buying the Belmira farm which was dedicated to the reproduction of trout, sale of fingerlings and sport fishing.

Initially the alevinos of the Municipality of Belmira were transported to the Municipality of Guarne, where their sale was made. Belmira’s farm was in charge of reproduction. Which was later left as only sport fishing, and we moved to the municipality of La Union (Ant), where the production and process plant was installed, which was certified under the HACCP quality standards. Which is a quality program that controls the risks that the product may have during its processing and puts some controls to prevent the product from being contaminated. This certification allowed exports to begin in the international market in 1995, mainly to the United States market.

That same year, the “Arco Azul” farm was acquired in the municipality of La Unión. Subsequently other farms were acquired in the area of eastern Antioquia where today tripled production, optimizing and technifying our crops.
