Japan delegation visit boosts export visibility
According to the press release (Page 2), Kings Infra recently hosted high-level delegations from:
- M/s. Shokuryu Co., Ltd.

Both are leading seafood trading houses based in Tokyo.
The visiting teams reviewed the company’s aquaculture farms and seafood processing facilities and appreciated its:
- Integrated farming model
- Stringent biosecurity protocols
- Antibiotic-free production systems
- End-to-end traceability standards
The company highlighted that although it has not actively exported to Japan in recent years, the engagement marks a significant step toward re-entering the Japanese market. Its quality control laboratory has also been upgraded to meet Japan’s stringent standards.
Expansion across Europe, Asia and Middle East
The company reiterated that it is diversifying exports across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East to reduce geographic concentration risk and improve value realization (Page 2–3).
To support rising global demand, Kings Infra is:
- Augmenting farming and processing capacity

- Realigning its portfolio toward high-margin, value-added, fully traceable seafood products
Visakhapatnam Aquaculture Technology Park
