About us
Our journey
Azorfisk was born as part of Scanfisk, with the intention of offering customers a unique experience in the purchase of fish. In 2015, we embarked on the challenge of providing a service of excellence, based on innovation, rigor and environmental preservation.
We work to add value to fishing and to satisfy and meet our customers' expectations with the freshest fish on the market.
What we believe in
A Sustainable Vision
Sustainability is a constant in Azorfisk's operations. We recognize the value of sustainable fishing and as such we respect marine ecosystems and ensure the balance of the oceans.
We manage resources responsibly and conscientiously in order to conserve biodiversity and protect ecosystems. We support a fishing model that provides the best fish while promoting the ocean's biodiversity.
Buy fish, respecting the integrity of the oceans!

Performance
Our mission
Azorfisk values a dignified and upright performance, so we are committed to sustainability and support fair fishing. We oppose the recurrent practices internationally known as IUU - illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.
Ethics and Commitment
What sets us apart
We present 100% of the provenance of the fish, be it the name of the boats, the declaration of the captains, the fishing techniques, and we also provide all the legal documents, duly signed by the Portuguese authorities.
We work in full transparency and intend to work with projects on Blockchain Technology. You can check the origin of the fish, through the QR Code.
Fishermen
Our base
The fishing community is at the heart of Azorfisk. It is important to focus on their protection and to establish transparent contracts with them in order to ensure the sustainability of the industry.
In this sense, Azorfisk collaborates with Portuguese authorities, aiming to defend fishermen, traditional boats and the ocean. We also work to fish using less intrusive techniques, for example hook and line and rod, always respecting international fishing quotas.
