ASC reporting: Summer Isles
We achieved our first ASC certification in May 2022 for our Summer Isles farms, part of our mainland marine estate.
We strive to farm responsibly in the widest sense of the word: from taking good care of our people and livestock, to protecting the environments in which we live and work, and making sure our local communities benefit from us being there.
It’s an ongoing commitment that we’re continually working on and adding to, including, in 2021, applying for Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification.

A key milestone in the expansion of our Orkney farming estate, Lober Rock first went live in December 2019.
Our three salmon farms in Loch Nevis, Mallaig, are next in line to apply for ASC certification.
Located within the historic stretch of water known as Scapa Flow in Orkney, Bring Head and Toyness are two of five salmon farms bought by Scottish Sea Farms back in 2007, marking our first activity in the region.
Part of our work to build on the five-strong estate of Orkney farms we acquired in 2007, all-new farm Westerbister went live in 2016, creating six new jobs and a £3M+ boost for the Scottish supply chain.
