Trapia was founded on a simple belief: that the pristine waters of Temmengor Lake — fed by one of the oldest rainforests on Earth — could produce tilapia that competes not on price, but on quality. From the beginning, we chose to build slowly, investing in the infrastructure, certifications, and relationships that would let us stand behind every batch we ship.
Trapia was founded the same year Royal Belum was gazetted as a Malaysian State Park — a 130-million-year-old rainforest watershed that remains the source of every fish we ship.
Nineteen years on, we operate as a vertically integrated tilapia producer – nursery, grow-out, processing, and cold chain under one operation.
