Seawork joins Team Namibia

Seawork Fish Processors, one of Namibia’s leading fishing companies, has joined Team Namibia.

Seawork will have access to TN’s content marketing initiatives on various platforms – both in the digital environment, but also in the organisation’s regular communication with stakeholders. In addition, Seawork will benefit through the association with Team Namibia brand, signified by using the trademarked Team Namibia logo for its products sold locally and its participation at local fairs and expos.

Seawork is a proudly 100% Namibian, widely owned, private company based in Walvis Bay. The company specialises in the catching, value-adding and marketing of seafood products for local and international markets.

With world class infrastructure that includes five EU-compliant wet fish trawlers and two state of the art production facilities, the group focuses on delivering a high-quality seafood product to its international and local clientele. With an acute focus on being at the forefront of innovative product development, meeting international quality management standards, and actively marketing its products locally and internationally, the company is vertically invested in the full value chain of the fisheries industry.

The Seawork group employs over 1 700 people, one third being male, with over 98% being previously disadvantaged Namibians. This makes Seawork one of the largest employers in the sector.

Commitment

“We regard ourselves as an industry leader by delivering truly authentic Namibian products. We believe that our membership of Team Namibia is a further reflection of our commitment to be investing in Namibia’s sustainable economic development,” said the managing director of Seawork, Peter Pahl.

“We also like to proudly show that our products are quality Namibian products by displaying the trademarked Team Namibia logo,” he continued.

Seawork’s products can be sourced locally at its wholesale and retail outlets in Windhoek and Walvis Bay. The group also supplies its business partners, Omankete Investments, two newly established retail outlets in Outapi in the Ohangwena region and Oshifo in Omusati.

“Team Namibia is mandated to raise the awareness of supporting local manufactures, producers and service providers. With Seawork having joined Team Namibia as member, we are further strengthened in our drive to support local businesses to reach market access,” said Team Namibia’s account director, Bärbel Kirchner.

“Through the collaborative efforts of businesses of this nature, we truly can make a difference in expanding the exposure of the Team Namibia brand in the interest of all sectors of our economy. It is vital that we continue to maintain and further build the Team Namibia brand,” she concluded.
