Philippine Fisheries Development Authority (PFDA) Regional Fish Ports (RFP) delivered 35,725.32 metric tons (MT) of fish for all their clients and stakeholders in the month of February 2025.

Subsequently, the PFDA - Davao Fish Port Complex (PFDA-DFPC) showed a positive performance with a 27.12% increase by turning over 259.03 MT of fish. 

Another Mindanao fish port, the PFDA - Zamboanga Fish Port Complex (PFDA-ZFPC), also showed a 22.97% increase by unloading 811.27 MT of fish. 

Meanwhile, the PFDA - General Santos Fish Port Complex (PFDA-GSFPC) provided the highest volume of unloading this month by giving 20,900.537 MT of fish.
