Business Areas

• Gillnet fishing: Gillnet fishing is a method where fish are caught by getting their gills or bodies entangled in the mesh of the net. The net is sometimes allowed to drift with the tides or currents rather than being fixed.
• Pot fishing: Pot fishing is a method where fishing gear called pots are set in the sea to lure fish, octopus, or eels to enter them voluntarily. It primarily targets octopus and eels.
• Longline fishing: Longline fishing is a method where multiple branch lines and hooks are attached at regular intervals to a long main line, using bait to catch fish. It is mainly used to catch large fish species such as tuna or toothfish.
• Set net fishing: Set net fishing is a method where a certain area of water is sectioned off, and nets are fixed to prevent migratory fish from escaping once they enter. It involves blocking the migration path of fish schools and guiding them into a trap net for capture.

Products

• Various coastal and offshore fish species: Various types of coastal and offshore marine products caught through diverse fishing methods such as gillnet fishing, pot fishing, longline fishing, and set net fishing, including mackerel, squid, octopus, eel, and tuna.
