The Falklands

At the heart of the Fortuna Group is the Falkland Islands, where its roots are deepest, its presence is strongest, and its long-term commitment is most visible.

Across its Falklands onshore and offshore operations, Fortuna supports more than 2,000 roles, making it a major local employer as well as a leading investor in the Islands’ future. That contribution extends well beyond fishing alone. Through a diversified portfolio of local companies, strategic investments in infrastructure and services, and a leading position in the Islands’ seafood sector, Fortuna plays a broad and active role in economic life. The sections below set out that story in two parts: first, the range of local businesses and investments that support the wider Falklands economy, and second, the fishing companies and seafood operations that remain at the core of the Group’s heritage, capability and international reach.

Our Local Companies

Across retail, resources, aquaculture, minerals exploration, processing, and marine transport, Fortuna’s investments reflect a long-term commitment to diversifying the Falklands economy, strengthening infrastructure, and creating local value—while sustaining its core role as the Islands’ leading wild-caught seafood producer.
