Each overseas branch office serves as a base supporting operational needs for our fleets. Not merely as a docking base, the establishment of our branch office has provided many career opportunities locally and has driven other industries to flourish, too.
Gilontas owns more than 80 FRP boats with tonnage ranging between 80, 100 and 200 tons. Our fleet comprises of Long liners, Squid Fishing Boats and Carriers; these boats currently scatter around Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans performing their designated duties. Managements and maneuvers of these boats are coordinated by our overseas branch offices.
In order to cater for operational needs, our overseas branch offices have invested on facilities such as HACCP certified processing plants and cold storage units. The investments on these infrastructures have consequently made employments available for local communities.
At the moment Gilontas exports majority of its fresh tuna to markets in Japan and U.S.A. Our quality fresh tuna has earned a sound reputation in main fresh tuna markets. And with the unique logo labeling on our fish the markets now regard the logo as an indication of good quality.
