Politics of
Hippocampus are
strongly centralized
on quality matter.
We take care of it
during the whole
productive cycle,
since immission of
juveniles to
fishing, in order to
obtain a product
answering to the
most important
requirements of
customers and at the
same time to make
that the fish is in
the best conditions
in an unnatural
enviroment like that
one of breeding.

The Hippocampus company is located in
Villafranca Tirrena, on the northern coast of Sicily,
in the area comprised between the Aeolian islands
and the capes of Peloro and Milazzo.
It operates in
fish breeding and seafood products transformation. The fishery, that is placed in an
area of 12.000 sqm (of which 6,000 covered), rises a few meters far from the
sea. Its off-shore breeding system is made from 6 cages, in an area of 150.000
sqm, about 1 km far from the coast.
From an area adjacent to the fishery,
daily, our boats leave for feed distribution and for fishing. Actually, our breeding production is worth in about 300
tons/year of fish sold as fresh or transformed; moreover, Hippocampus uses other
seafood for its products, for a total potential production worth in about
10.000 tons/year.
So, from a special bond between sea and earth, the
Hippocampus products are born.
