About us
Ask anyone who works in a marine environment, and they’ll tell you that the ocean makes them humble. That’s why, long before we embarked on our dream to create Greece’s most modern aquaculture facilities, we decided that, not only would we offer the freshest and highest possible quality products but that we’d also do so in an environmentally sustainable manner.
And we did it in all the ways possible. We are a company Greek to the heart, for our fish are born, grown and produced in pristine waters of the Aegean Sea, while our major stakeholder Diorasis International SA is Greek to its core. The most important aspect of our strategy is to offer the freshest and highest quality fish, while using state-of-the-art technology in order to reduce our environmental footprint, plastic use and other harmful effects on the marine surroundings to the minimum level.
One of our first tasks was to find the right location: for, not surprisingly, it’s below the surface that true magic takes place, where the schools of sea bass and sea bream roam the parks freely. And when we did, we managed to extend our entry into the 6 value-added chain, and therefore to possess a strong production platform in ongrowth and hatcheries, a superior genetic improvement program, a growing brand considered to become the industry innovator.
Who’s to be praised? The Mediterranean marine environment, the Greek oceanic life; their magic, their potential, their freedom and the multiple ways they empower us.

Timeline

Learning the business from the sea floor up
The company was established.

Building an integrated solution and a solid reputation
In the pristine waters of the North Euboean Gulf, our first vertically integrated site becomes operational. The strong currents, high water oxygenation, and warm waters all combine to create an ideal growing environment.

The expansion of the “Philosofish” brand and its guiding principles
Philosofish brand is born and a new chapter of the company’s long-standing history begins. The creation of our motto “your wellbeing, our philosophy” underscores a commitment to freshness, quality control, and sustainability.

Crossing international borders and core restructuring
Philosofish expands its sales and the opening of two new farms doubled the company’s total production capacity.

Growth, licenses, and certifications
Philosofish’s employee base tripled in size since its first acquisition, and continued to widen its client base. Following a lengthy process, Philosofish won a new license next to our existing farms. We obtained four major certifications, notably from BRC, IFS, Global Gap, and Friends of the Sea.

A new opportunity on the horizon
Following new acquisitions as part of the facilities of Selonda and Nireus, Philosofish became the second biggest aquaculture producer of Mediterranean fish in the EU and the 5th biggest in the world.

Our 2 big farms received ASC certificate
The company obtains the prestigious Aquaculture Stewardship Council certification, known as the world’s leading sustainability certification scheme for seafood. Companies awarded this title are assessed as being entirely socially and environmentally responsible.

Foundations for the future
Philosofish International SA is established in Italy, home to the largest market for Mediterranean fish. This pivotal step enabled Philosofish to understand the needs of customers and provide the highest level of service to this market.

Implementing new technologies to increase our feeding standards
In the second quarter of 2022, Philosofish delivered alongside AKVA group a feeding barge in the Mediterranean.
