Granjas Marinas, the leading Honduran shrimp producer, is consolidating its two main divisions Granjas Marinas San Bernado (GMSB) and Granjas Marinas Laboratorio (GML) into a single enterprise.

From now on the company will be officially be known as Empacadora de Productos Aquaticos San Lorenzo SA de CV (ESL).

The move gained the blessing of the country's regulators, allowing the company to put half a dozen subsidiaries, including Crimasa and Codelpa, in addition to dormant firms, under one umbrella.

"We are a vertically integrated activity and determined that efficiency required putting everything under one roof," ESL CEO Victor Wilson told IntraFish.
