Blue Island activities
The main core of the company’s activities is the breeding of the Mediterranean Sea Bass and Sea Bream species and the marketing of fresh fish from offshore fishing.
The company was founded in 1993 (under the name Blue Island Fish Farming Ltd.) as a marine farming unit. An important development in 1999 for the company was the change to being a public company and being listed on the Cyprus Stock Exchange. This development contributed to the development of the company both in the field of marine farming and in the field of fresh fish marketing.
Today, the company stands out in the Cypriot market in the areas of seafood and fish trading, thanks to its modern organisational structure and infrastructure. Both the structure and the infrastructure of the company are constantly reviewed and developed in order to offer a reliable and comprehensive customer service, both in Cyprus and abroad.

- Production of fish through its subsidiary: Blue Fisheries Ltd., in the Akrotiri area.
- Fish farming through its fish farm in the Governor’s Beach area.
- Wholesale trade in Cyprus and abroad; through the fish processing/packaging/warehousing plant in the Strovolos Industrial Area.
