Both generations work under a common goal: customer satisfaction. Doing so, the company has continued to grow without losing its essence or vocation, staying firmly rooted to its Isla Cristina origins and age-old traditions, and achieving international recognition throughout its almost 50 years of business.<\/p>\n<div class=\"divider-blanco my-5\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"text-left text-uppercase texto-dorado adorno-titulo-dorado-left pb-3 wow fadeInUp\" data-wow-duration=\"2s\">MANUAL PRODUCTION<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-left\">Our production continues to be 100% manual, faithful to the centuries-old tradition of removing the skin from our fish fillets by hand and then placing them in the tins one by one. This ensures the fish are thoroughly cleaned and keeps the fillets perfectly intact. It\u2019s what makes it possible to achieve the outstanding quality we\u2019re known for.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-left\">This method goes hand-in-hand with the quality of our raw material. All our fish is seasonal, with excellent nutritional values, has only 100% natural covering liquids, such as olive, sunflower or tomato oil, and is preserved in its natural state, with water and sea salt.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"container-fluid fondo-gris p-0\"><img alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4379 img-full curva-blanca-sup\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/03\/curva-blanca-sup.svg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"row pt-5 px-4 px-lg-5\">\n<div class=\"col-12 mb-4\">\n<h2 class=\"text-center text-uppercase adorno-titulo-center pb-3 wow fadeInUp\" data-wow-duration=\"2s\">QUALITY<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-center texto-semi-destacado\">USISA quality standards have been recognised by the leading food quality labels:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row px-4 px-lg-5 pb-5\">\n<div class=\"col-lg-3 px-lg-4 mb-4 wow zoomIn\">\n<div class=\"fondo-blanco corner-rounded box-shadow p-4 h-100\">\n<p class=\"text-center\"><img alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-298\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usisa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/caballa-huelva-andalucia-.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"232\" height=\"125\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-center\">The products are protected under the Regulatory Council of the Geographical Indications Mojama de Isla Cristina.
