Our PRODUCERS / Balfegó Atunes

Balfegó Atunes

Balfegó is the trade mark for consistency, freshness and preservation in tuna, world wide.

About

In the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, where the waters are pristine and the fishing traditions run deep, you’ll find Balfegó.

Balfegó is a fifth generation fishing family business dedicated to the fishing and farming of bluefin tuna. Located in l’Ametlla de Mar, a small fishing village on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, their story begins in 1963 when the Balfegó family began their journey in the tuna trade. Starting with a small fishing boat, they spent years at sea perfecting their craft and building a reputation for quality. Over the years, the small family business has grown into a large company that is now a leader in sustainable fishing.

Theirs is a story of multicultural learning, mixing the best of Mediterranean and Japanese food culture, and preserving a beautiful animal for generations to come.

Commitment to Quality and Sustainability

Balfegó is dedicated to upholding the health and harmony of the marine ecosystem. The fishing quotas are stringent, gear is highly selective, and methods are designed to minimize bycatch and protect endangered species. They are proactive in scientific research and collaborate with conservation organizations to deepen our understanding of the marine environment and contribute to its preservation. Moreover, Balfegó is proud to operate a closed-cycle production system, ensuring the highest quality and freshness of their products from the moment the fish are caught to the time they are packaged and ready for sale. Cutting-edge facilities and technologies are designed to reduce energy consumption, minimize waste, and ensure the optimal handling and processing of fish, all while maintaining the highest standards of quality and sustainability. After many years of effort, they have transformed the traditional fishing of this species into an innovative and sustainable business practice both socially and environmentally.

Balfegó’s dedication to sustainability, exceptional quality and traceability make them an ideal partner for Mevalco. Our shared commitment to offering environmentally responsible and premium products aligns with our values.
