Marine Harvest Chile Gets BAP Approval at 9 Farms, 2 Processing Centers Through Multi-Zone Program
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [SeafoodNews] February 1, 2016
Marine Harvest Chile completed Best Aquaculture Practice (BAP) certification against the program's multi-site zone cluster program at nine of its salmon farming sites and two of its processing plants.
The BAP multi-site zone cluster program allows an applicant with multiple farm sites in a federally set zone, also known as a “barrio,” or neighborhood, to apply for BAP certification for more than one site at a time. In addition to multi-site zone cluster, farms can be certified as a group.
“At Marine Harvest, we are proud to achieve three-star BAP for our operations in Chile, which confirms the high standards of our operations, our commitment toward sustainability and our engagement with our customers,” said Gianfranco Nattero, Marine Harvest’s managing director of sales and marketing in the Americas. “This certification will allow us to continue to grow and develop the salmon category in the U.S. market.”
