The company operates hatchery, farming across 1,032 acres (105.78 acres owned and 926.22 acres leased), pre-processing, processing with over 34,240 MTPA capacity including facilities at Kakinada (9,240 MTPA owned) and G.

Founded as a partnership firm named Apex Exports in 1995 and converted to a public limited company headquartered in Kakinada, East Godavari district, Andhra Pradesh, India, the company recently received EU approval for its second processing facility at G. Ragampeta in fiscal year 2025 to boost high-margin ready-to-eat product sales; it expanded ready-to-eat capacity by 5,000 MT to 10,000 MT in fiscal 2023-24, launched commercial operations at the G. Ragampeta shrimp processing plant in March 2020 increasing total owned capacity to 29,240 MTPA, and reported robust 19% revenue growth to Rs 238.34 crore in Q2 fiscal 2026 amid strategic market diversification, inventory normalization in export markets, lower ocean freight costs and favorable pricing for Indian shrimp farmers despite global trade tensions.
