Penaeus Monodon

ATLANTIC BLACK TIGER

West Africa Aquaculture was established in 2000 to develop sustainable aquaculture in The Gambia. It is The Gambia's first hatchery, farm and processing establishment.

Our speciality is Penaeus Monodon, Atlantic black tigers.

The Gambia offers the perfect environment for growing tiger prawns. Our prawns are grown in the clean, pollution-free waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

We maintain high standards and ensure complete control of the production from maturation to distribution with traceability and food security following HACP guidelines.

As pioneers in marine farming in The Gambia our continuous teaching and training programs ensure a well-trained, dedicated and conscientious workforce.

Our products are grown slowly in a healthy and natural semi-intensive environment. We do not use antibiotics.

Our product is processed directly after harvesting to maintain the highest degree of freshness. Prawns are packed and blast frozen, semi-IQF, on-site in our newly built processing plant, which conforms to EU standards and is EU certified. GAM/FPE/08/04
