How did Ocean Sky become a leader in the seafood industry?
“Starting in 2015, Ocean sky has been one of the leading companies with a focus on sashimi grade Atlantic salmon. Our technologies and processing facilities allow us to provide and ensure that all our farm-raised Atlantic salmon are of the highest standard and our practices prove that we are leaders in all aspects of farming in Chile. We have a one-of-a-kind facility that lets us farm salmon in the initial stages to the mature stage. In addition to that, all facilities are driven to produce a sashimi grade product that is fully traceable and eliminate all microbiological residues for a clean and ready-to-eat product that is delivered to Hissho Sushi.”
How did Ocean Sky and Hissho Sushi begin their working relationship?
What is the timeline of when the product is made and the shipment arrives to Hissho Sushi?
“From the moment we harvest to package is in 3 days or less. We harvest the Atlantic salmon from our facilities, we package in 100% micro-biological clean rooms, vacuum-seal the product, and then it goes in a blast freezer. It is frozen within 3 hours or less of harvesting. This eliminates any bacteria growth and makes us the leader in sashimi-grade salmon supplier in the United States. With that in mind, anything that is bought from Hissho Sushi with Ocean Sky salmon is responsibly sourced, 100% sashimi grade, and safe to eat.”
How does Ocean Sky ensure the quality and freshness of its seafood products?
“Throughout the process, we do multiple tests in clean rooms and ensure there is 0 presence of any harmful bacteria near the product. This is proven through our micro-biological testing equipment and certifications. We are meticulous in all aspects and it is our #1 focus to ensure the salmon is safe to eat. The temperature is tracked throughout the entire transport from Chile to the United States and the logistics chain is monitored to the point that it is delivered to your door.”
What sets your salmon apart from other products in the market?
“Being the leader in farming practices, and sashimi grade salmon. We have invested heavily in our processes from the beginning. Every single salmon that we farm and process has the goal of a 100% sashimi grade product. The quality is higher than everyone else.”
Where does Ocean Sky Partner?
What is something you are particularly proud of?
“Since we opened in 2015, we have been able to double sales every year and achieve credible goals. As of 2023, we are in the top 10 suppliers to deliver Atlantic Salmon in the United States. This is only 7 years that we have been in business that I’m very proud of. With time, I think we will continue to show that we are a big player in the United States and create a delicious product that Hissho Sushi customers will enjoy many years to come.”
What’s next? What’s the future of Ocean Sky look like?
“Atlantic Salmon is the #1 protein that we can farm humanely and responsibly in the ocean to help aid the growing demand for food that is needed globally. As populations increase, we need to have an environmentally safe protein that families can eat every day that has positive health benefits. We have an extraordinary product to bring around the world.”
Is there any impact to the environment from farm-raised fishing?
What is one thing you want the average customer to know?
“Farmed salmon, done correctly, is the best form of seafood in the world. It is extremely safe to consume and has so many health benefits to feed your families consistently. This product is extraordinary, and the partnership with Hissho allows us to share this with more customers around the United States and we hope everyone enjoys it.”
