History

SANTEH has been in the aquaculture business for almost two decades. We ventured into aquaculture in 1990 with the manufacture of TATEH palletized feeds from the first Lawang Bato production facilities in Valenzuela. We have since 2001.moved on to the present state-of-the-art plant in Calumpit, Bulacan This plant covers an area of four hectares and is equipped with the most advanced extruders and pelletizers.

Continuous development has made Santeh a leader in the market, from the original Tateh pelletized prawn feeds, we have since diversified our product line to include a complete range of high-yielding aqua feed products for various fish and crustacean species. In 1993, our pellets became successful and paved the way for the production of tilapia and bangus feeds. This soon expanded to include floating fish feeds and later feeds for high value marine fish such as grouper and sea bass.

SANTEH Feeds Corporation commits itself to the highest standards of excellence. This was achieved through compliance audits that are conducted periodically to monitor adherence to strict quality standards, good manufacturing practices and ensuring the highest standards of customer satisfaction in the industry. In the year 1997, SANTEH topped the aqua feed industry by becoming the first

This was the result of its stringent adherence to internationally accepted standards in the following practices:

(1) selection and use of materials, (2) processing, (3) conservation of resources, (4) product development, and (5) waste management.

Through its efforts, Santeh has set the set the standard for aquaculture feed manufacturing, making it the industry leader.

What Sets Us Apart Our numerous years of experience in aquaculture research and development have advanced our knowledge in fish and crustacean breeding, growth and nutrition. This extensive database has improved our capability to continuously improve the formulation of our various feeds to serve each sector of the aquaculture industry. This knowledge is also used in designing a production process that produces the optimal pellet form for each type of culture method.

Technological EnhancementsToday, we manufacture aquaculture feeds with the highest nutritional standards not only for traditional fish species like Tilapia, Milkfish (Bangus) and Shrimp but also for the production of high value marine fish (Grouper, Pampano, Seabass and Snapper), crustaceans (mangrove crabs and giant river prawn) as well as for freshwater fish (Koi, Carp and Catfish). Each of our products is formulated with essential nutrients, vitamins and minerals for the different developmental stages of fish growth from fry to juvenile to adult.

We are the first to introduce high-protein and high-energy feeds with balanced amino acids that conform and exceed standards set by the Bureau of Animal Industry. The feeds we produce ensure maximum growth, better body maintenance, and resistance to diseases and environmental stress.

Our early stage formulation for hatcheries and nurseries is also acclaimed as the best in the market. Our line of breeder feeds and fry boosters ensures the farmers of healthy seeds and improved survival. Extensive Research

Santeh not only delivers the best quality products in the market but we also hone optimal farming protocols under different culture conditions whether marine,

brackish or freshwater. This information is disseminated through our technical bulletins and on-site farm seminars throughout the archipelago. In this way, we help fish farmers in the country especially the small-scale ones located in remote provinces, to achieve higher, more profitable yields.

Breeding – Key to Profitable Aquaculture

Santeh believes that the key to successful aquaculture is in the availability of superior seeds and diversified breeds. Through collaboration with the University of the Philippines in the Visayas (UPV), Mindanao State University at Naawan (MSU-N) and Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC-AQD), we have promoted the development of hatchery and nursery technology for various marine fish species such as grouper, seabass, snapper, pompano and crustaceans such as crabs. The Mabayo Nursery site cultures marine fish larvae to fingerlings with both natural and artificial feeds.

In the development of a superior tilapia breed, Santeh has invested with Genomar of Norway in Genomar Supreme Philippines. This project has bred the tilapia now widely used in many countries for the reliable growing of fillet size tilapia.

Fish Marketing – Farm to Market

With the organization of the Fishta Seafood Division, Santeh is now able to promote various new fish species to the delight of consumers. From the delicious Pompano to the healthy Bangus and Seabass, Fishta Seafood handles the harvesting direct from the farm and brings our produce to major fish markets in Manila. We also provide hotels, restaurants and supermarkets with consistent quality products grown in our own farms.

In 2004, Fishta Seafood pioneered the display of live Pompano in aquarium tanks in major supermarket chains and seafood markets.

Fishta is now a major supplier even to quality processors and caterers for fresh seafood needs.
