The purchase of this capital stock represents an
important event in the Hayduk Corporation history, which was formed more than
30 years ago in society of the Martinez family and the Baraka family.
Today, the fishery is the fifth largest company in the
production of flour fish and the second largest industrial producer of canned
and frozen foods in the country. Only in 2020, species discharges represented
11.90% of the national total, generated more than 126 MT of fishmeal, 40% more
than in 2019; 24.9 MT of fish oil and increased sales of canned fish by 16%. In
addition, it generates employment that benefits more than 4 thousand Peruvian
families.
“With this purchase we renew our commitment to the
national industry and reinforce our commitment to responsible and sustainable
fishing, that respects the regulations to protect marine biomass. Now we have a
new impulse to continue producing the protein necessary to make food of the
highest quality”, noted Walter Martinez Moreno, chairman of the board of Hayduk
Corporation and Grupo Martinez.
