Sustainably farmed, natural prawns from Bangladesh
Sustainably farmed, ethically sourced, all-natural black tiger prawns, fresh water prawns and harina prawns from Bangladesh. TotalFood Processing’s offering is unique because no other frozen food processing operation in the country incorporates the same stringent quality standards into its building, equipment and food preparation practices. TotalFood is the new standard bearer for Bangladeshi prawns and frozen seafoods.
Bangladesh is home to the most mouthwatering prawns available, whether it’s fresh water prawns from the southwestern delta or harina prawns from the Bay of Bengal. The Sundarbans region, meanwhile, incorporates the world’s largest mangrove forest, a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its gentle tidal range and mineral-rich soil feed the farmlands to the north of it, providing the perfect environment in which black tiger prawns can flourish.
TotalFood’s ready-to-cook and ready-to-eat product ranges include tempura, torpedo and butterfly king prawn finger foods.

Wastage
Chitosan
A large proportion of the prawn carcass cannot be eaten (30-45%, depending on the species), and is therefore usually disposed of during processing. Not in the case of TotalFood Processing, however. It has advanced plans to repurpose discarded prawn shells and fish scales into Chitosan. A polysaccharide or polycarbohydrate, Chitosan has a range of useful commercial and biomedical applications. These include as an agricultural seed treatment and biopesticide, a component in the manufacture of self-healing polyurethane paint coatings, and as an antibacterial agent in bandages.
