Awards and distinctions

Here are our awards and distinctions that confirm the quality of our products and innovation in the fish and seafood industry.
MTP Group Gold Medal at POLAGRA Food 2024 for SoNa!
We are proud to announce that our African catfish grilled sausages have been awarded the prestigious MTP Group Gold Medal at POLAGRA Food 2024!
Our chorizo-flavored sausages, marjoram-flavored sausages, and classic white sausages are premium products – combining the traditional flavor of Polish cold cuts with the health benefits and lightness of fish.
They are easily digestible, perfect for children and seniors, and also a great alternative for those limiting their red meat intake.
They taste delicious cold, reheated, or straight from the grill.
Silver medal in the “Smakuje Dziecom 2024” competition!
Our canned catfish ham won a silver medal in the “Good Breakfast” category at this year’s Smakuje Dzieciom competition. This is a special distinction for us – after all, the results were decided by the most demanding jurors – over 200 children from 11th grade! Their honest opinions are the most valuable confirmation that our product truly appeals to our little ones.
BIO certificate
Since March 27, 2019, we have held the Organic Certificate. Organic products are ecological, organic products. The certificate guarantees that the animals were fed organic feed, did not receive hormones or antibiotics for developmental purposes, and were raised with good welfare in good conditions that meet established high standards. All additives used during processing are also certified. We initially obtained the organic label for sea bream, sea bass, and shrimp. Obtaining the certificate requires much more work for the breeder than in agriculture or traditional farming and is more expensive. Breeding is conducted naturally, takes longer, and is less efficient. We pride ourselves on offering organic products to health-conscious customers and offering them guaranteed organic quality.
“Trustworthy Company” Certificate
The “Trustworthy Company” certificate awarded by CBOK Sp. z o.o. and Sp. k. of Rybnik was granted based on an analysis of information about our company, conducted using the company’s proprietary algorithm and based on data available online. Thanks to the opinions of our business partners and clients, we were able to establish a high level of credibility in both qualitative and financial aspects.
Certificate of Payment Credibility
On June 16, 2015, the international credit information agency Creditreform conducted a creditworthiness assessment of our company. We are pleased to announce that the overall analysis of our organization’s financial condition, particularly our ability to settle our obligations on time, was deemed good. As a result, our company received the prestigious Certificate of Payment Credibility.
