Helping Turn The Tide on Deforestation With Sustainable Salmon

As a leader for over a decade in sustainable aquaculture, Verlasso has made a commitment to protecting the precious biodiversity and ocean ecosystem surrounding our farms in Chile. Our environmental pledge, however, reaches far beyond our waters.

In addition to an agreement with the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to achieve 100% Aquaculture Stewardship Council certification for all of its operations, our parent company, AquaChile, is dedicated to sourcing soy – a key ingredient in our salmon feed – from non-deforestation certified areas.
