In a strategic move to consolidate its international presence, Zunibal, owned by Nazca Capital, today announced the acquisition of Zong Hong Marine. The Taiwanese company, based in Kaohsiung, specializes in advanced satellite communications services. This operation involves the creation of Zunibal Asia, with new headquarters in Taiwan from where the Asian market will be covered. In this way, Zunibal strengthens its service capacity in the region and reaffirms its strategic commitment to technological innovation and proximity to its customers.
With a 30-year track record of developing advanced technological solutions for more efficient and sustainable fishing, Zunibal has consolidated a solid international position, with a presence in more than 45 countries around the world. Over the past few years, Zunibal has worked closely with Zong Hong Marine, identifying clear strategic synergies between the two companies. The acquisition significantly reinforces its technological offering in satellite communications, strengthens its global operational capacity and allows it to offer more agile solutions, closer and specifically adapted to each market, in line with its strategic vision of driving innovation and sustainability in the fishing sector.
In the words of Ibone Rodríguez de Pablo, CEO and shareholder of Zunibal, “This acquisition represents much more than a strategic step; it is an alliance born of shared values and a common vision of the future. We are proud to be able to continue to grow in Asia, bringing technology and innovation for more sustainable and responsible fishing. This is the commitment we make to our customers, to the oceans and to future generations.”
Simon Chen, CEO of Zong Hong Marine, said, “We are proud to join a company like Zunibal, with its 30-year track record and strong global recognition for technological innovation in the fishing sector. This alliance reflects a shared vision for the future and brings us operational strength, allowing us to accelerate our growth, broaden our value proposition and offer even more specialized and sustainable solutions to our customers.”
In the words of Daniel Pascual, partner at Nazca Capital, “the acquisition of Zong Hong Marine and partnership with Simon marks a strategic milestone to consolidate Zunibal's presence in Asia. From the very first moment we saw in him a vision aligned with ours, a strong commitment to the project and a deep experience in the Asian market. This step reaffirms that we are still very active in identifying new inorganic growth opportunities.”
The operational integration of Zong Hong Marine within Zunibal will begin immediately, with the official launch of Zunibal Asia scheduled for the second quarter of 2025. Thanks to this integration, Zunibal will strengthen its technical and commercial capabilities, offering specialized solutions in satellite communications, with local multilingual support and personalized technical support. In addition, Asian customers will have direct access to the technology developed by Zunibal, such as its advanced monitoring systems based on artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to optimize the management of fishing fleets.
This acquisition reflects Zunibal's strategic commitment to strengthen its international presence and accelerate its global development.
