Recognized by the Regional Government of Ucayali

On 15 May 2026, Peru's National Day of the Micro and Small Enterprise, the Regional Government of Ucayali, through its Dirección Regional de la Producción, recognised Amazonian Reserve as one of the leading aquaculture enterprises of the region. The acknowledgement was presented at an official ceremony in Pucallpa and signed by the Regional Director of Production.
Each 15 May, Peru honours the micro and small enterprises that form the backbone of its economy. To be selected within the aquaculture sector, by our own regional authority, in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, is a recognition we hold with quiet pride. It belongs to everyone who works our ponds and to the standard we have chosen to keep.

We are a producer of origin, not a trader. Our work begins with the fingerling and the patient rearing of paiche, Arapaima gigas, in its native Amazon waters. Every fish carries a single, documented point of origin. It is raised, not chased.

Arapaima gigas is the giant of the Amazon, historically the most prized fish of the basin and, for that reason, long pressured in the wild. Raising it under controlled aquaculture is precisely what allows a chef to work with it with consistency and with a clear conscience. The flesh is firm and pale, a wide and nearly boneless fillet that takes equally to the plancha, to confit, to cure, and to the raw preparations of Amazonian and Peruvian tradition.

Through our distribution partner Atlantissea, our paiche reaches professional kitchens abroad. A recognition at the source is the surest guarantee a kitchen can ask for, a fish with a name, a river, and a recognised house behind it.
