AFRICAN CATFISH (HITO) RAISED AT V-4 FARMS

Scientifically named Clarias gariepinus, the African catfish commonly called "hito" by the locals, was introduced by a private
group from Taiwan in the late 1980's. It came from Africa where it breeds naturally in lakes and grows to a size of 1.4
meters.
With a distinctively meaty taste setting it apart from its competitors, V-4 Farms breeds and produces a substantial amount of
African catfish to supply local market needs and gourmet restaurants. Live Catfish is available all year round from V-4 Farms.
