A Name Rooted in History, A Vision Geared for the Future

Taporbane Seafood carries a name that harks back to an ancient era when Sri Lanka was known as Taprobane—a beacon of natural beauty and bounty to ancient Greeks and world explorers. This rich heritage informs our mission today as we stand at the forefront of introducing Laughing Bird Shrimp to the global market. Founded in 2011 amidst the recovery of a post-conflict Northern Sri Lanka, Taporbane is not merely about producing seafood; it's about crafting a legacy of regeneration and sustainability. Our operations, fully staffed by women including leadership roles, not only contribute to economic revival but also champion environmental and community initiatives. From mangrove replantation to educational scholarships, we embody the spirit of Taprobane, striving to make a significant, sustainable impact on the world. At Taporbane Seafood, its not just about farming shrimp; its about pioneering a sustainable future for aquaculture. As the first to introduce Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) Vannamei shrimp in Sri Lanka, we've set new standards for quality and sustainability in the seafood industry. With our commitment to no antibiotics, no hormones, and eco-friendly practices, we deliver not just seafood, but a promise for a better tomorrow.
