We are proud of our ethical farming practices which are driven by a clear vision of the future. We are committed to transparency and encourage you to explore our approach.

Our Operations | 我們的經營哲學

Every big business starts as a small one—Huon Aquaculture (Huon) started out in 1986 in Dover’s picturesque Hideaway Bay as the Bender family business. In 1994, Peter and Frances Bender bought out the family and began to expand Huon by contract-growing salmon. They continued with this model until 2005 when they stepped out and began to grow, market and sell their own Huon Salmon and Ocean Trout.

In 2014, Huon took the step to list on the Australian Securities Exchange in an effort to raise a significant amount of capital to expand and further modernise the business.

Fast forward to today, and Huon employs over 700 people, farms Huon Salmon and Ocean Trout, sells fish across Australia and internationally, and leads the world in farming technologies such as our smart feed system.

一切從小規模經營做起-憑藉著嚴酷挑戰、獨創、決心與運氣直到2014年股票上市，順利募資以進一步擴充至今的現代化規模。

快速發展到今天，我們已有超過700人以上的員工在從事養殖鮭魚與海洋鱒魚，現在不止在澳洲，並已銷售產品至全世界了，在科技養殖技術上不斷地創新下，正引領著世界潮流-如：智能化的餵養系統。

Fish health, welfare and biosecurity

At Huon we practise a holistic approach to fish farming. We achieve this through having a strong focus on fish health, welfare and biosecurity.
人道飼養
關懷每一隻鮭魚的健康、福利與生物安全

Freshwater operations

The hatchery is where it all begins for our fish and we are continually improving our practices to care for them from the moment that the eggs are hand-milked from our broodstock, right through to when they’re transferred to sea.
從「種魚產卵-海洋養殖」
一切都在潔淨的水源裡以「人道方式」來關懷與飼養

Marine operations

Huon has three marine regions in which fish are farmed.Each of these sites has its own set of environmental conditions including wave and wind exposure, depth, distance from shore, and seabed composition.
海洋生態的潔淨水質飼養操作
Huon在塔斯馬尼亞有三個主要飼養區域，每一個區域都有一套自己的大洋環境設定-根據波浪、風場、深度、離岸距離與海床構造來設定

Harvest and processing

As a fully vertically-integrated company, we manage every single step in the process including harvest, processing, packing and dispatch.
收成與加工
做為一家完全垂直整合的公司，我們管控每一個流程的每個步驟，這包括收穫，加工，包裝和發貨。

Australia’s Only RSPCA Approved Salmon

澳洲唯一認證「人道飼養」的漁產養殖-不僅今天，而是天天都要符合「防止虐待動物協會」的嚴格標準與評估

Two years on from the initial approval in July 2018, fish welfare remains essential to every aspect of what we do. That’s why we are committed to meeting RSPCA’s detailed animal welfare standards, not just today, but every day.

Being able to supply Australia’s only range of RSPCA Approved Salmon means that consumers that care and want the best for themselves and their families can now do that with confidence by choosing Huon. With a growing number of Australians including fish in their diets, it’s important that caring consumers have the opportunity to choose a product that has been raised to a high standard of animal welfare – Huon are leading the way in offering Australians a humanely farmed salmon product.

This accreditation is important to Huon because animal welfare is important. Over the past several years as salmon consumption has increased, so has the desire for consumers to know more about the salmon that they are eating and by continuing to maintain RSPCA Approval animal welfare is front-of-mind for our staff and our consumers.

We believe that antibiotics should only be used as a last resort which is why we practice a holistic approach to farming. This approach is the reason why it has been five years since we last used antibiotics at sea, which was to treat a single pen of fish.

「人道飼養」的理念是每一個在Huon工作的員工之優先考量，從種魚的產卵到遷移至海洋飼養，堅持每位員工一定要在每日的工作中來實踐，務必使澳洲以及全世界的每一個家庭都對Huon鮭魚有高度的信心與信任。

我們相信「抗生素」的使用是最後的手段，所以我們針對鮭魚的養殖做各種整體的科學分析後來實踐之，這也是我們這5年多以來在養殖上未使用任何抗生素的原因！
