Official Certification

Our systems are designed to minimise disease risk, protect customer waters, and maintain full traceability from egg to delivery. This commitment underpins every batch of fish we supply to professional fisheries and regulated restocking programmes.

Site ID: FS0537

Full movement records and traceability data available.

Secure Water

Isolated supply with no upstream fish farms, reducing pathogen exposure risk.

Site Zoning

Controlled access and mandatory sanitation points between operational areas.

Transport

Dedicated, disinfected tanks and oxygenated vehicles between every delivery.

Screening

Routine laboratory testing for viral and bacterial pathogens under vet supervision.

Low Density Rearing

Reduced stocking densities improve fin condition, oxygen access, and muscle development.

Continuous Monitoring

Daily observation of feeding behaviour, growth, and water parameters to identify issues early.

Low Stress Handling

Humane grading and transfer methods to maintain condition during transport and restocking.
