The recent delivery of a new ice plant to Somaliland should provide a major boost for local fisheries by ensuring that catches are landed in premium condition and enabling the development of new markets.

Managed by fishery consultant MacAlister Elliott & Partners Ltd (MEP), the new containerised plant will be able to produce up to 10 tonnes of high quality ice per day. The ice plant will be operated by fishery company Pontus Marine which has the funding support of over 1,000 investors looking to improve the economic fisheries potential of Somaliland.
