About RAFCO
Who We Are
Founded in 1997 on the shores of Bosaso, Puntland, Raasi Ahmar Fishing Company (RAFCO) is East Africa's premier wild-caught seafood exporter. We combine generations of traditional fishing knowledge with modern cold-chain infrastructure.
From the pristine waters of the Somali coast, we source over 20 species of fish, shellfish, and cephalopods — serving wholesalers, restaurants, and international buyers across East Africa, the Middle East, and beyond.

What We Stand For
Our Core Values
The principles that guide every catch, every shipment, and every partnership we build.
Quality First
Every product we export meets the highest international freshness and food-safety standards — from the moment of catch to final delivery.
Sustainability
We fish responsibly, respecting seasonal patterns and marine ecosystems to protect the Somali coast for generations to come.
Integrity
Transparent pricing, honest grading, and no shortcuts. We build long-term buyer relationships on trust, not transactions.
Community
We partner directly with local artisanal fishermen, creating fair livelihoods and keeping value within the Bosaso fishing community.
Innovation
Modern cold-chain technology, real-time logistics tracking, and continuous investment in processing facilities keep us ahead of the industry.
Reliability
Consistent volumes, on-time shipments, and responsive communication — so your supply chain never has to wonder where its seafood is.
