Sea Harvest Corporation is a Level 2 Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) contributor and one of the largest empowered companies in its sector. The majority shareholder is Brimstone Investment Corporation Limited, while the other shareholders are Sea Harvest management and staff. Brimstone Investments, a black owned Cape-based investment consortium, first invested in Sea Harvest in 1998 and acquired control in 2009. The principal business is the fishing of Cape Hake and Shark Bay prawns, processing of the catch into frozen and chilled seafood, and the marketing of these products, locally and internationally. Sea Harvest owns and operates a fleet of 18 vessels which include single and twin fresh fish trawlers, factory freezer trawlers, and access to inshore trawlers which catch and process Cape Hake, as well as other by-catch species such as kingklip and monk. In Australia, the Group has a further 11 prawn vessels through its subsidiary Mareterram which catch and process prawns, scallops, crabs and related by-catch species. Sea Harvest’s fresh fish processing plants in Saldanha and Mossel Bay are built on deep-water quays. This enables the trawlers to tie up alongside and speedily off-load into the factory, essentially becoming part of the production line. Sea Harvest processes and packs over 100 products for the local and international markets between its factory freezer vessels, and its two processing facilities in Saldanha Bay and Mossel Bay.
