Kumbatia Seafood and Buena Vista Seafood: A New Era in Sustainable Reef Species Distribution

We are excited to announce our partnership with Buena Vista Seafood, a leader in ethical and sustainable seafood distribution in the U.S. This collaboration marks a significant milestone as we become their first partner for distributing tropical reef species from East Africa to the U.S. market.

Why This Partnership Matters
Buena Vista Seafood was searching for a supplier that could meet their rigorous quality and impact standards, and we were seeking a U.S. distributor who could progress our mission to economically empower East Africa's most remote fishing communities. Through a mutual industry connection, we found a perfect partnership to advance our shared goals.

Key Milestones In Our Partnership
Early 2024: We initiated our partnership with the first sample exports, followed by wholesale exports to Miami and New York via air freight, all before the season ended.
Industry Recognition: Seafood Source, the world's leading seafood publication, highlighted our model in a front-page article.

What Makes Our Offerings Unique
Full Traceability: Our seafood is not only high quality but also fully traceable and sustainably sourced from small-scale artisanal fishers in East Africa.
First-Of-Its-Kind Supply Chain: We are pioneering the supply chain for fresh marine seafood from Kenya to the U.S., with our humphead red snapper being the first of its species ever registered with the FDA.

With this partnership, we're excited to bring fresh, sustainably sourced reef species from the East African coast to U.S. consumers, adding a new and exclusive dimension to the seafood market. By choosing our products, you are not only receiving premium seafood but also supporting our mission to enable sustainable development across the Swahili Coast's most remote fishing communities.
