Why Farm Salmon?

4 reasons why farming makes sense

It helps us keep up with the demand.

Year after year, the global demand for Atlantic Salmon increases. Farming is the best way to keep up with demand. That's why almost all Atlantic Salmon is farmed.

We can restock what we consume.

By farming Atlantic Salmon we can ensure that quality fish will be continually produced in an environmentally-sustainable manner.

We can supply Atlantic Salmon year-round.

Unlike wild salmon, which is only available at certain times of the year, farmed Atlantic Salmon is always available, so you can buy it any time you like.

Farmed Atlantic Salmon reduces pressure on wild salmon stocks.

With farmed salmon responding to global demand wild salmon is harvested in limited numbers to responsibly maintain fisheries.

However, the demand for salmon continues to outpace potential wild fisheries sources, so the need to farm fish increases. Currently, farmed seafood accounts for nearly 50% of world consumption. Ocean raised salmon provide the majority of Atlantic Salmon.

We're committed to ensuring that our farming practices are ethical, sustainable and respectful to the environment.
