Quality assessment
A large industrial salmon-farming operation, but one of the only entities in this batch carrying a genuinely comprehensive, independently-audited certification stack: ASC certification, BAP 4-star (the top of that scale, unlike the 3-star mid-tier seen elsewhere in this batch), and the first Seafood Watch 'Good Alternative' rating ever given to a farmed fish, plus published stocking densities below regulatory ceilings. The certifications are real and strong; industrial JV scale under a large corporate parent (AquaChile) is what keeps this at 'solid' rather than 'exemplary,' which this batch reserves for named single-family operations.
