The story of Unicos begins with a connection.
Kiamba, a coastal town in southern Mindanao, Philippines, is home to our eel farm—but to us, it is more than just a location. It is our origin, our foundation, and the place where our dreams began to take shape.
In November 2017, during a visit to Kiamba, our founder met Mr. Danda—a local partner who cared deeply for his community. Inspired by a shared promise to“bring happiness to all working people,” Unicos laid the first stone of its land-based aquaculture facility along the lush, nature-rich beachfront. Kiamba is a land blessed with abundant natural power.
After repeated drilling, we discovered pristine deep groundwater, later certified by the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources(BFAR) as safe and high-quality.This spring water flows constantly, allowing our eels to thrive in an environment of continuous freshness.
Rich soil, mineral-laden groundwater, and sea breezes from the nearby ocean work together to protect the eels from disease and strengthen their natural immunity. These ideal conditions allow us to raise healthy eels completely without medication, using a 100% drug-free method.
Surrounded by an Amazon-like tropical climate and the gentle sounds of nature, the environment is peaceful and stress-free. Here, our eels grow strong, healthy, and vibrant—almost as if they were living in the wild. At Unicos, our goal is to achieve truly sustainable aquaculture—where nature and people thrive together.
We are committed to protecting the natural beauty of Kiamba, creating local employment, and delivering a model of harmonious coexistence with nature—one that future generations can be proud of.
From this land, to the world.
