The catch is processed on board on the freezer trawlers, where skilled teams of fish workers chill, clean, fillet and package the catch as soon as it is brought aboard. These processes ensure the freshness and preservation of the delicate taste of the fish. The freezer trawlers remain at sea for up to 40 days. On-board processing facilities are fully compliant with South African food safety regulations for fish and fishery products and with the specifications of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP), BRC Global Standards and IFS.

Report on operations The electricity supply to the Western Cape was severely disrupted in 20X5 due to problems experienced with the national electricity grid. The electricity usage for the factory is approximately 0.5kWh per tonne for the main processing plant and 0.25kWh for the value added plants. Healthy Fish pays R1 500 per kWh. Total electricity required by Healthy Fish for the factories is 157 500kWh per annum, which under normal conditions can be purchased from the national grid. The electricity purchased from the national grid was for some months below from what was required for full production. Healthy Fish supplemented the shortage from their own generators. The running cost to produce 1kWh with the diesel generators was R3 600 for 20X5. The cost per diesel generator was R150 000, including installation. The generators are imported, with a purchase price of 10 000 at an exchange rate of R14.55. Currently, one generator is installed at the processing plant and one generator at the value add plant. The company has a diesel storage capacity of 2 000l at each of the plants. Fuel consumption is approximately 100l per kWh per generator. Each generator can be run for a maximum of 10 hours per day. The company also has an agreement with a fuel supplier to have fuel on standby when needed. The fuel can be provided as follows: 1 000l within 2 hours and up to two days for 20 000l. The transport industry experienced a prolonged national strike for higher wages in 20X5, which was initially planned for two days, but increased to three weeks due to intimidation and posturing by the unions for position caused by strife within the federation of trade unions. The impact was more profound in the transport industry as the unions were of the opinion that the cut in the supply to petrol stations and fuel depots across the country will create more awareness of their struggle, score political points and take the business owners to task. The impact of the fuel supply had a significant impact on the company as the backup generators were not able to run at full capacity. Financial results The business was severely disrupted by unreliable electricity supply and the processing units were not able to operate at full capacity. A large portion of the catch of the wet trawler fleet was wasted due to the inability of the processing plants to process the fish.
