The Pelagic Freezer Trawler Association (PFA) represents the interests of 8 pelagic freezer trawler companies from six countries across Europe (France, Germany, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland and the UK), which fish almost entirely for human consumption.
PFA members are well-established family-run companies, with a focus on fishing for pelagic species such as herring, mackerel, horse mackerel and blue whiting.
By using innovative freezer trawlers with on-board processing and freezing space, our members can integrate all aspects of the supply chain from the catching and processing to the distribution and exporting of pelagic fish. Whilst these vessels are larger than most other pelagic trawlers to account for freezing space (which makes up around 70% of the vessel’s size), this approach to fishing limits their carbon footprint by reducing the number of outings and therefore fuel consumption.
