Where it all began
Since 1905, we’ve been working hard to ensure families across South Africa have quality seafood products they can trust.
From our humble beginnings in Saldanha Bay more than a century ago to becoming a heavy-weight in the canned food industry, our family and community values have always remained at the core of how we do business.
Today, our cannery provides much needed employment to more than 400 workers from the area surrounding St Helena Bay, where our operation is now located. From here the Saldanha brand continues to provide the quality products that have been bringing families together for more than 110 years.
Why Saldanha?
Single source quality
We pride ourselves on the fact that all our fish are sourced from the Atlantic Ocean, and canned in our own factory on the west coast of South Africa. However, quality products require more than just quality supply. At Saldanha, we employ local men and women who share our passion for the ocean and the area, to help ensure quality during every stage of production.
High food-safety standards
Major upgrades to our cannery between 2005 and 2013 paved the way for our factory to become the first food processing factory in South Africa to achieve HACCP accreditation and ISO 22000 certification. Our products also adhere to strict NRCS standards and are independently evaluated per batch before being released.
Great value, real goodness
We know you care about your family and want to give them the best. That’s why we give you our best! When buying Saldanha products, you can be sure you’re getting food that tastes great, is affordable, and most importantly filled with vital nutrients.
