ABOUT ASP
Atlantis Seafood Products is the largest 100% black-owned frozen seafood production factory in South Africa, manufacturing specialised seafood products from our factory in Atlantis, South Africa.
Empowerment trust
ASP is wholly owned by the Atlantis Seafood Products Employee Empowerment Trust. This means the company is 100% black-owned with black women from Atlantis being the majority owners (84.7%). These women beneficiaries are often the only breadwinners for their extended families, making the Trust responsible for over 1 500 people in the broader community. In addition, 75% (270 out of 359) of our employees are under the age of 35.
Purpose-built factory
Our purpose-built factory uses highly specialised equipment with the latest, best-practice factory layout and design. This allows us to efficiently handle, package and process an impressive variety of seafood products. Our selection ranges from bespoke whole crab to popular bulk products like hake fillets, kingklip and line fish portions for the restaurant trade and specialised cuts for the retail sector. We pack fresh, quality hake fillets and portions for export to EU markets.

We expertly produce a range of seafood products, including hake, line fish, molluscs, crustaceans, various whole fish and a selection of speciality seafoods. Our specialist handling skills and versatile processes allow us to fillet, skin, de-bone, portion and pack a wide variety of fish and seafood, as fresh or frozen products. We pride ourselves on our ability to develop unique products with exclusive recipes from concept to plate, based on each customers’ unique requirements.
