About Us

New Hope Fisheries is a project that was conceived and started by Francis and Brigitte Fobbie in 2021 as part of their Heavenly Tribal Messiah outreach program in Sierra Leone, West Africa and Africa as a whole. As Heavenly Tribal Messiah Victors and African themselves, inspired by the teachings and guidance of Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Mother Moon, they are dedicated to serving mankind wherever they are and in whatever they do. Their motive and aims for this fisheries initiative are stated below.

• Have dominion of love over all the natural resources in and under the waters

• Serve our customers with respect, care and honour

• Work with our partners and employees with the same ethos above plus gratitude

• Leading supplier of fresh fish: smoked fish and dried fish.

• Network of cold rooms in major cities.

• Expand our operations to other countries in West Africa

The underpinning motives for this initiative:

1. Keeping our people engaged and employed in what they do best - using traditional approaches and methods to utilise their natural resources in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way.

2. Providing food and nutrition for the nation through serving local communities.

3. Being judicious custodians of GOD'S CREATION.
