Decades of trust with New Zealand's most remote harvest operations made this possible. What reaches you has never been offered here before.
Learn about the programThe portfolio
Three producers. One standard. Seafood Watch Best Choice and BAP 4-Star across the entire portfolio. The most credentialed farmed salmon program available in the US market.
Wild-caught and ikejime harvested at sea. Traceable to vessel and day of catch. Exceptional flesh integrity from line to plate.
ASC certified Atlantic turbot from the cold coastal waters of northern Spain. The benchmark flatfish for European fine dining.
Australian-bred barramundi raised in pristine Arizona desert spring water. Exceptional water clarity produces clean, distinctive flavor. Demonstrates that provenance is about water quality, not geography.
My father Philip built this company on relationships. A handshake on the Hauraki Gulf, a phone call at 3am to make the morning flight. We are the next generation of that same standard since 1987. That does not change.
Accountability
NZS maintains active MSC and ASC chain of custody certification. Every certified species arriving in our facility is handled under a documented program from harvest point to US delivery. No exceptions.
All three New Zealand King Salmon producers we carry hold Seafood Watch Best Choice status and BAP 4-Star certification, the highest standard in responsible aquaculture. We do not carry uncertified salmon.
