Say NO to a fish meal and fish oil factory on Quay 1 in Mossel Bay Harbour

Afro Fishing (Pty) Ltd, the owner of the canning factory in the Mossel Bay harbour, is planning to establish a fish meal factory on the old I&J premises.

There are also plans to expand the canning factory to accommodate red herring, anchovy and other fish species for the international export market.

Residents feel the potential impact of the stinky fish meal factory on the tourism industry and the overall image of the town as a coveted holiday destination, will be devastating.

If you are against this industry, please sign the petition and give reasons why you object to its establishment. We need as many petitioners as possible to stop this smelly business in its tracks before it's too late!
