What Seafresh Industry Public Company Limited does

Seafresh Industry Public Company Limited (SET ticker: CFRESH) is a Thai frozen shrimp processor and exporter founded in 1982 and listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand since 1993. The company operates a vertically integrated value chain — from shrimp hatchery and farming (including wholly-owned operations in Belize) to processing and international distribution — with wholly-owned sales subsidiaries in the UK, Europe, and the USA, and a presence in Japan. Its 20,000-square-meter production facility in Chumphon Province, Thailand, has a freezing capacity of 30,000 tons per year and 3,000 tons of cold storage, equipped with spiral, tunnel, and contact plate freezer systems plus IQF, Semi-IQF, and block freezing capabilities, supported by a full farm-to-finished-product traceability system.

The product portfolio spans five lines: value-added shrimp (breaded, battered, tempura, shrimp rolls, marinaded, skewered, patty, twister), cooked shrimp (head-on, headless, easy-peeled, peeled deveined, shrimp ring), sushi-grade shrimp (sushi ebi, premium sushi ebi, blanched sushi, sushi temaki), raw frozen shrimp (including Nobashi ebi), and other products (shrimp powder, peeled head shrimp), marketed under six brands (Seafresh, SFI, GO-GO, Thai Chia, Phoenix, Sea Angel). The company holds an extensive certification stack — BAP, ASC, HACCP, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, GMP, HALAL, BRC, Q MARK, TTM, ISO/IEC 17025 — and has maintained SET ESG Ratings Level A for 11 consecutive years.

Revenue is generated through B2B export of frozen and value-added shrimp to foodservice operators, retail chains, and food manufacturers, distributed directly through owned subsidiaries (Sea Farms Limited and Blue Earth Foods Limited in UK/Europe, Sea Farms Inc. in the USA). Pricing is negotiated contract-based with no public disclosure. Sustainability investments include biogas electricity generation from wastewater, reverse-osmosis water recycling, and R717 refrigerant transition. Operational signals point to stable, mature operations with consecutive ESG and corporate governance awards and no disclosed contraction.
