PRODUCT DETAILS
BEST OF BREED - Our classical breeding program has seen over 20 years of sustainable husbandry practices, creating eight generations of King salmon. This has produced over 100 distinct King salmon families, chosen so that only the finest examples – with the most appealing taste, texture, color and size are carried forward to subsequent generations. As a result, the Ōra King salmon breed within the program have developed specific and unique traits which distinguish them from other King salmon.
RESPECT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT - As a company, Ōra King firmly believe that it falls to preserve the environment for future generations. Ōra King Salmon focus is on the sustainable production of salmon that addresses the growing demand for marine protein without compromising the health of the planet, our salmon or consumers.
At Ōra King our sea farming and processing operation are ‘Best Aquaculture Practices’ certified by the Global Aquaculture Alliance. Furthermore, Monterey Bay Aquarium’s consumer guide, Seafood Watch has given New Zealand King salmon a ‘Best Choice’ buy rating for consumers. Vancouver Aquarium’s Ocean Wise conservation program also recommends Ōra King as a sustainable seafood option. These independent ratings support our ongoing and substantive efforts to maintain our environmental integrity.
“King salmon is a special and very rare species of salmon, making up less than one percent of the world’s supply of salmon. Ōra King is our unique breed of this rare species, the result of a breeding program which began in 1994.” Grant Rosewarne, CEO

Best of Breed
New Zealand King Salmon have been perfecting sustainable husbandry practices and breeding expertise for a quarter of a century. New Zealand King Salmon’s classical breeding programme has produced nine generations of King salmon, creating over 100 distinct salmon families, chosen so that only the finest examples — with the most appealing taste, texture, colour and size — are carried forward to the next generation.
Through this programme we have created a unique breed, called Ōra King, genetically distinct from any other King salmon found in New Zealand or the world.
