pan do mar

At Conservas Antonio Pérez lafuente, they feel like heirs to a long tradition of canned fish and seafood producers, and therefore they maintain pride in the processing methods and treatment of fish inherited from their ancestors, without renouncing technical advances in control and food safety. 

The products they offer under the "Pan Do Mar" brand are based on the following fundamental principles that guide their activity:

Artisanal production: All fish is prepared, cleaned, hand-cleaned and packaged in their factory according to the practices and traditional recipes of the local cuisine.

Sustainable fishing: All fish processed in the factory comes from fisheries considered sustainable and is caught using traditional fishing methods according to criteria approved by the FAO and nature conservation organizations based on the use of selective and controlled fishing methods. Fishing is carried out with coastal vessels (coastal fishing) using traditional and non-predatory fishing methods characteristic of local communities with deep-rooted family traditions in fishing and seafaring.

Organic ingredients: The same interest in preserving the natural environment is applied in the selection of ingredients that accompany the processed fish and seafood: cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, vegetables, spices and vinegar for the sauces, all from certified organic and biodynamic farming.

The idea that inspires their work is respect:

Respect for the environment, because they want to leave the world to all children as rich and varied as we received it.

Respect for the work of employees and partners.

Respect for customers who expect the best quality.

The Pérez Lafuente family has been dedicated to the production of canned fish and shellfish for over 100 years and have been pioneers in the production and marketing of shellfish from the Galician fjords.

The factory is located in Vilanova de Arosa, a coastal town on the Atlantic coast of Galicia, in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula, an area blessed with an abundance of fish and shellfish, which allows us to deliver the product in perfect freshness and in optimal condition. The name under which we market our products, "Pan Do Mar", accurately reflects the history and work philosophy of their company, which is production based on the rational and sustainable use of marine resources.

The products offered under the "Pan Do Mar" brand are therefore based on the following fundamental principles:

Fishing is carried out with coastal vessels (coastal fishing), typical of the local communities and their deep-rooted family traditions in fishing and seamanship, using customary non-predatory fishing gear.

The quantity of catches, the sizes and the gear used are regulated and inspected by the relevant official bodies.
The entire fishing and production chain is fully traceable and certified.

The same standards apply to the selection of the accompanying ingredients: extra virgin olive oil, vegetables, spices, vinegar and wine for the sauces, all sourced from Spanish organic farming.
