About Us

Rainforest-raised. Trusted by the world.

Trapia began with one conviction: that the pristine waters of Temenggor Lake — fed by one of the oldest rainforests on Earth — could produce the finest farmed tilapia in the world.

 

We have farmed to that standard over since.

One lake. One operation.
Every container, every market, every standard met.

Our Journey

The rainforest origin

Trapia farms inside Royal Belum, a state-protected primary rainforest in northern Malaysia. A lake cradled by 130 million years of rainforest. The only place on Earth where tilapia is raised in waters shared with wild tigers, Asian elephants, and hornbills.

The rainforest sets the standard. We meet it.
