Cromaris processing plant is located in Zadar, just a few hours away from Cromaris farms. It started operating in 2012, and through numerous investments, the plant is continuously modernized and upgraded in accordance with the latest technologies and standards for fish processing. TThe facility was built according to the principles of good manufacturing and hygiene practice and is certified according to the strictest international food safety standards (BRC Global Standard for Food Safety and IFS Food). In this way, we guarantee our clients and consumers the maximum security of purchasing a healthy and high-quality product of top freshness.
Harvested fish is transported by Cromaris fleet vessels immediately after the harvest to the processing plant for the fish sorting process. Sorting separates the fish into classes (depending on the size of the fish) on an automated sorting line to make the process as short and efficient as possible. Depending on customer orders, part of the sorted fresh fish packed in boxes is sent directly to the target market while the other part is processed. The peeling, cleaning and filleting of the fish is done by machine with minimal manual manipulation, and then the processed fresh fish is packed in cassettes or recyclable trays. Packing in trays, with MAP or SKIN technology, which additionally preserves the product’s freshness, takes place automatically on the most advanced machines currently available on the market.
A special part of the production that requires the highest hygienic standards is intended for the preparation of the deli range products of Cromaris, ready for consumption, prepared by classical traditional methods without the use of artificial additives and preservatives.
All Cromaris products are characterized by superior freshness, quality and rich nutritional value and are produced without added preservatives, additives, antibiotics or GMO ingredients. Cromaris products are created for the most demanding modern consumers focused on tasty, healthy, sustainable and quality food.
Continuous modernization of the processing plant, automation using the most advanced machines currently available on the market and constant optimization of production processes allow us to increase capacity year after year while maintaining the highest quality of finished products.
