Connas Trading
Connas Trading has cultivated strong partnerships with local fishing communities along the picturesque Kimbe Bay.
Their mission is to champion responsible fishing methods to safeguard the delicate balance of the ocean's ecosystem, particularly by protecting the young fish population.
With the support of a start-up grant, they have been able to enhance their operations by constructing a cutting-edge workspace equipped with refrigeration, storage, and ice-making facilities.
The new solar-powered freezers and ice makers not only promote clean and cost-effective energy solutions but also empower fishers with the necessary resources to maintain the freshness of their catch. This innovative approach helps to reduce fish spoilage during transportation and minimize waste. In addition to investing in environmentally friendly equipment, the business is educating the fishing community on sustainable practices through informative training sessions on responsible fishing techniques.
The goal is to raise awareness and inspire others in rural areas to adopt eco-conscious methods. By providing essential resources and knowledge, we aim to reinforce responsible fishing practices and pave the way for a more sustainable future for our oceans.
