Ensis Fisheries was formed in 2002, with a vision to expand the reach of community-based local fishermen and deliver their fresh wild captures from Maldivian seas to customers across the globe.
Over the years, the company has grown to become the largest fish exporter in the country and have won several awards for their exceptional service in the fishing industry, second largest industry in Maldives.
While winning the Best Exporter Awards every year from 2003 to 2009, Ensis received the Maldives President Public Service Award in 2007. Ensis also won consecutively the Gold 100 company award in Maldives since 2016.
The company has its own fleet of refrigerated trucks and uses gel ice in packaging, to export seafood in temperature controlled conditions that preserve the integrity of the cold chain from harvest to the customer.
Apart from successful trade, the company plays a significant role in the community as well. It assists the schools and community organizations through sponsorship and other forms of support. ‘We also support the fishing communities and the fishermen by providing them soft loans, cool boxes for tuna and assistance in maintenance and repairs.’
