Maldives

The Maldives Industrial Fisheries Company (MIFCO) is a state-owned enterprise in the Maldives and a key player in the country's fisheries sector. MIFCO operates as the backbone of the fishing industry, focusing on fish processing, value addition, and export, particularly of **tuna**, which is the country’s most important marine resource.
MIFCO was established in 1993 to enhance the fisheries sector in the Maldives. It is a government-owned company under the umbrella of the State Trading Organization (STO), which oversees its operations.
Processing and Export of Tuna: MIFCO processes tuna caught using the Maldives' traditional and sustainable pole-and-line fishing methods.
Canned Tuna Production: MIFCO produces canned tuna, which is a key export product, often sold in brine, oil, or spring water.
Frozen Tuna and Fish Loins: The company also processes frozen tuna, fish loins, and cooked tuna for global markets.
MIFCO operates several facilities across the Maldives to process and handle fish:
- Felivaru Cannery: Located in Lhaviyani Atoll, this is the main production facility for canned tuna.
- Kooddoo Fisheries Complex: Located in Gaafu Alif Atoll, this is one of the largest fish collection and freezing facilities.
- Addu Fisheries Complex: Located in Addu City, this facility is critical for fish processing and export operations in the southern atolls.

MIFCO emphasizes sustainable fishing practices, primarily utilizing pole-and-line fishing, which reduces bycatch and protects the marine ecosystem.
Maldivian tuna, processed by MIFCO, is Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)-certified, ensuring its products meet international standards for sustainability.

Export Markets
MIFCO’s products are exported worldwide, particularly to Europe (UK, Germany, Netherlands), Japan, and Asia-Pacific regions.
The Maldives benefits from trade agreements, such as reduced tariffs under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) with the European Union, which helps MIFCO compete in international markets.

MIFCO is focusing on upgrading its facilities and expanding into value-added products, such as flavored tuna and ready-to-eat tuna meals.
It is exploring new markets and partnerships to further promote Maldivian tuna as a premium, sustainable seafood product globally.

MIFCO is not just a business entity but a vital pillar of the Maldivian economy and culture. It supports sustainable fishing, promotes traditional pole-and-line fishing methods, and ensures that Maldivian tuna reaches consumers worldwide as a high-quality, eco-friendly product.
