About Yachtis
Yachtis sells frozen fish and seafood, and is the smallest of the three food brands Aquila picked up with Agrirom in 2019: its sales passed RON 4 million in 2025 against Gradena's tens of millions. Its 2025 additions were aimed at restaurants and canteens rather than at shoppers, following the same move into the hospitality trade that the group made with LaMasă, and the company describes its packaging strategy as deliberately unchanged.
