This high level of care continues right through to harvest. So when the salmon have reached the required size and weight for market, we transport them from sea pen to processing facility via a well-boat – a vessel with a specially designed ‘well’ to carry live fish. That way, they remain in water as long as possible. We also chill the water by one degree which is thought to calm and settle the salmon during transport.

At the harvest station itself, the process is carried out as quickly and as humanely as possible. The fish are lightly electro-stunned whilst still in water, then percussive stunned, bled and packed in ice ready for onward transport to processors or market within a matter of hours.
