Where does our pangasius come from?

At Vinh Hoan, we believe responsibility starts at the source. That’s why we are vertically integrated in our pangasius operations, from feed to hatchery, harvest to processing. By being directly involved at every stage, we ensure complete traceability, consistent quality, and high environmental standards.

We don’t just source our fish, we raise it.

Pangasius

Scientific Name: Pangasianodon hypophthalmus

Meet the fish that keeps mealtimes easy.

Pangasius, also known as swai or basa, comes from the rivers of Southeast Asia, where it’s been enjoyed for generations. Naturally fast-growing and well suited to farming, it’s one of the most reliable fish you’ll find on your plate today.

Whether you’re pan-frying, baking, or adding it to your favourite sauce, pangasius adapts beautifully, making it a go-to for busy weeknights and family meals.

Traceable in Every Step.
Reliable in Every Bite.

From the pond it was raised in, to the feed it was given, to the hands that processed it, every step is recorded, verified, and traceable. It's not a feature we added on. It's built into how we operate, because transparency isn't optional when you care about what you do.

From Hatchery To Harvest

Pangasius are raised in carefully managed freshwater ponds where water quality, oxygen levels, and fish health are continuously monitored. We oversee each stage of growth, adjusting conditions to support steady development and overall welfare.

From early growth to harvest, production follows structured protocols designed to maintain balance, protecting the fish, the surrounding ecosystem, and the communities connected to it.

Responsible aquaculture is not about producing more. It is about producing well.

Feed Evolution

Healthy fish depend on balanced nutrition.

Feed is developed around what the fish biologically needs: essential amino acids, beneficial fats, vitamins, and minerals.

Carefully formulated blends combined with responsibly sourced marine ingredients provide complete nutrition while reducing reliance on wild fish stocks.

This makes pangasius one of the more resource-efficient animal proteins available today.

Quality Assurance

Before it reaches your kitchen, your fish passes through multiple layers of control.

Our farms operate under regulated production systems. Our processing facilities apply internationally recognised food safety standards. Products are tested to ensure compliance with strict regulations. Temperature is carefully controlled from harvest through transport and packaging to preserve quality and freshness.

Quality is not inspected in at the end. It is built right

Why This Matters

Few ever stop to look at the journey from water to plate. We’re here to change that.

From the calm freshwater ponds of the Mekong Delta to your plate, your pangasius is cared for at every step, by our farming team who know the waters, by our quality assurance team who check every stage, and by systems designed to keep it fresh and safe.

And when you understand the journey it took, enjoying it becomes as rewarding as knowing it was cared for along the way.
