Mangrove forests represent an irreplaceable ecosystem that is both fragile and limited. Extremely sensitive to variations in water salinity and climate change, they are essential as a vital habitat for many marine and terrestrial species.
Mangroves provide natural protection for our biological realm, acting as a veritable ‘green belt’. It also offers huge potential for carbon offsetting for all our activities.
At OSO®, we are dedicated to offering you the ‘best prawns in the world’ thanks to a 100% integrated supply chain.
Since the beginning of our adventure, we have controlled every stage of production: from rigorous farming to processing, including cooking in our factory in France and optimised distribution right up to the last kilometre.
When farming our OSO® prawns in Madagascar, we apply an innovative concept called the ‘comfort cube’, which models in 3D the different parameters focused on animal welfare, a pillar of our AB certification. By minimising stress and optimising living conditions, we guarantee natural, healthy growth while respecting the environment.
This meticulous organisation enables us to preserve the exceptional quality of our OSO® prawns and guarantee incomparable freshness, whether on your shelves or on your plates.
Since the beginning of our adventure in 1976, OSO® has made the strategic choice to fully integrate the production chain to protect itself from diseases present in the natural environment.
To achieve this goal, we have set up a breeding of domestic broodstock, demonstrating a unique know-how in the world. In parallel, we have created a hatchery dedicated to the birth of our future OSO® prawn , which then join the pools of our farm.
All, of course, is certified in organic farming, guaranteeing exceptional quality.
This unique architectural structure serves as a nursery for OSO® Bio baby prawn, designed in the form of a flower.
Each “petal” of the facility is a reservoir containing approximately 100,000 litres of pure Indian Ocean water, which is rigorously biologically secured to preserve prawn health. The green petals are not only aesthetic, but also functional.
These colours are derived from the algae in the tanks, which are the main source of food for baby prawn. This architecture thus harmonizes aesthetics with functionality.
The OSO® biological domain in Madagascar is the first shrimp-farming company in the southern hemisphere to be certified as an “Ethical Trade” (Ethical Trading Initiative) since 2008.
Madagascar is an exceptional island full of riches where our exceptional gambas evolve in harmony with nature but also people.
