Breeding method
Our salmon fillets and portions come from the Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar). This salmon is farmed in Norway, Iceland, and the Faroe Islands. Here, the fish are given ample space to swim and grow up on a natural diet. Thanks to strict controls and innovative aquaculture methods, the salmon's welfare is ensured and the environmental impact is minimized.
Our salmon carries the ASC (Aquaculture Stewardship Council) quality mark, meaning it comes from sustainable and environmentally friendly farming. This guarantees that the fisheries meet high standards for water quality, animal feed, and biodiversity. Learn more about our mission on this page.
