We care about freshness

Heritage Salmon is harvested and shipped every day from the cold, clean coastal waters of the North Atlantic Ocean. In fact, because we're so close to the markets we serve and we use a speedy processing and transportation system, Heritage Atlantic Salmon is among the freshest fish you can buy.

Cold chain management for freshness

We strictly control the temperature of the harvest-to-delivery process. The fish are kept just above freezing, 1- 2ºC, from processing to delivery. So the ultimate fresh Heritage Salmon stays fresher longer.

The freshest Heritage Salmon goes into our smoked and specialty products

Our smoked Heritage Salmon is absolutely unique in North America. Why? Because unlike other companies that buy their Atlantic Salmon on the market, we usually use our own fresh Heritage Salmon, harvested daily. This Heritage Salmon is prepared for smoking almost immediately after coming out of the water — and this makes all the difference.

Ocean-raised in the cold, North Atlantic

All of our fish come from the cold, clear waters of the North Atlantic. It's a natural place for Atlantic Salmon to grow and among the best places in the world to raise healthy natural Atlantic Salmon.

Rigorous food safety & quality control

All Heritage Salmon issued from our processing plants meets or exceeds the guidelines set by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and the United States Food and Drug Administration. What's more, all of our plants are compliant with the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points System — internationally recognized as one of the best and strictest food safety systems in the world. So you can be sure that your Heritage Salmon has been processed in the safest way with the utmost care.
