Their aim was to provide Innovation and Hatchery Technology in the full process to give a world class product for their clients.

Operating under strict biosecurity controls, Baja Seas’ entire production is underscored by responsible technology. It uses Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) to create a small water footprint by cutting pollution and disease; fish are fed sustainably-sourced protein- and omega-rich meal derived from sardines in a low Fish In-Fish Out (FIFO) ratio; the fish are raised without antibiotics or paraciticides; and semi-automated feeders and feed cameras prevent overfeeding.
