Over the last 7 years, harvest volumes have the capacity to produce up to 9000T per annum, but now service the regional markets with fresh whole round, fresh and frozen gutted and fillets. LHA is an integrated fish farm with its own hatchery collecting 2.5 million eggs per week to be hatched into fingerlings for LHA cage operations as well as sales to group companies and third parties.

Cage operations are centered on 7 sites on Lake Kariba 2 kms offshore, each site housing 20 cages collectively keeping 2 000 tons of fish biomass at any one time.
