Biography
For over 30 years, Zunibal has been at the forefront of technological innovation in the fishing industry—designing smart, sustainable solutions that help fleets operate more efficiently and responsibly. Since our founding in 1995, we’ve pioneered advancements like the first satellite-connected buoy for tuna fishing, reshaping how the industry approaches data, connectivity, and decision-making at sea. Today, we operate in over 45 countries with an integrated ecosystem that combines hardware, software, and oceanographic intelligence. Our technologies—such as acoustic satellite buoys, real-time analytics software, and AI-driven planning tools—enable skippers to optimize performance, reduce bycatch, and make data-driven decisions in real time. One of our most forward-looking solutions is Electronic Monitoring (EM). Built using cutting-edge technologies including AI, edge computing, and satellite communication, our EM system is designed to be robust, scalable, and inclusive. It provides real-time monitoring and data collection that enhances transparency, supports compliance, and ensures the sustainability of fisheries. What makes our EM solution stand out is its adaptability: it serves both large industrial vessels and small-scale fisheries, offering a truly global and accessible approach to monitoring at sea. At Zunibal, we believe that technology should leave no one behind. That’s why we continue to innovate with purpose—creating tools that drive progress and protect the future of our oceans.
