At Boni Seafood, we are excited to announce that South Pacific Hake (Merluccius Gayi) is now available in better quantities and sizes, offering an ideal opportunity for buyers in both the European and North American markets. As the catching season progresses, we are seeing improved availability of larger fillets and HGT products, all at better pricing. 

Market Conditions Favor Buyers Right Now 

Ecuador has been ramping up its focus on sustainable fishing practices and enhancing the supply of hake to meet rising demand. Historically, hake from Ecuador has been competitive on the global stage, but recent developments have made this an even better time to buy: 

  • Increased Availability: After seasonal limitations, Ecuadorian hake production is picking up. Improved catch levels have stabilized supply, and the market now offers larger sizes that are perfect for both retail and industrial processing. 
  • Competitive Pricing: Compared to its Argentine and North American counterparts, Ecuadorian hake is now priced more attractively, especially for larger-sized fillets and HGT products. This is partly due to an increase in production capacity and more favorable market conditions for exporters  

Why Ecuadorian Hake is an Excellent Choice 

Ecuadorian Hake (Merluccius Gayi) is highly sought after for its firm texture and mild flavor, making it a versatile option for various culinary applications. Whether you’re producing high-end restaurant dishes or processing for retail, Ecuadorian hake stands out for several reasons: 

Sustainability: Ecuador’s fishing regulations ensure that stock levels are managed responsibly, making it a sustainable option for long-term business relationships 

High-Quality Fillets and HGT Products: Ecuadorian hake fillets are known for their uniform cuts and premium quality, while HGT (Headed, Gutted, and Tail-off) products are ideal for Southern European markets that prefer traditional fish preparations. 

Chemical-Free Processing: Unlike some suppliers, Ecuadorian hake is processed with minimal additives, ensuring a natural and fresh product. 

Nutritional Benefits of Hake 

Hake is a lean fish rich in protein, vitamins B6 and B12, and omega-3 fatty acids, making it not only delicious but also a healthy choice for consumers.
