Fein Catch is Belize-based Fresh Catch tilapia farm in La Democracia, which was producing 4.3 million pounds of fish in 2008 and moved into foreclosure in 2010.
In a move seen as a “major shot in the arm” for the industry, The Feinstein Group of Companies rescued the former Fresh Catch Tilapia Farm from receivership in January of 2014. The firm’s inspired venture into aquaculture will bring this important business fully back into operation with pond rehabilitation, which began shortly after purchase, and restocking. Earthworks have been completed for two blocks of ponds on the 600-acre farm. The two blocks consist of 90 fish ponds with an impressive yield expectancy of over two million pounds of fillet per year. Fein Catch expects to start harvesting in early 2015.
