ECF Limited

Previously Splashzone leased rig and shark quota from Gisborne Fisheries, until the two companies decided to team up together to form a 50/50 partnership and catch crayfish and wetfish from the Vessel “Pearler”. From this relationship, ECF Ltd (East Coast Fishing Ltd) was born in 2009. Since then “Pearler” has been sold and we now have fishing vessel “Legend1”.

Salve Zame is the General Manager of Gisborne Fisheries, which had its beginnings with his Grandfather Bartolo in a fish shop/café in 1928 ending up a café, retail and wholesale fish supply business becoming Gisborne Fisheries Ltd in 1936.

Using Tarakihi as their base fish, Gisborne Fisheries has grown through the various boom and bust cycles of the fishing industry.  The companies emphasis on quality, vertical integration (catch to retail), good business practices and an emphasis on an excellent team (some who have been with the company many years), have proven to be the success of the company.
