Salmon Farmers

Welcome to the BC Salmon Farmers Association!

The BC Salmon Farmers Association represents over 60 businesses and
organizations throughout the value chain of finfish aquaculture in BC. We
represent BC’s vibrant salmon farming industry to the public, the government
in BC and Ottawa, and industry stakeholders. Our members account for over
95% of the annual provincial harvest of farm-raised salmon in British
Columbia.

Farm-raised salmon generates over $1.142 billion for the provincial economy,
supporting thousands of jobs, mainly on Vancouver Island. Additionally,
farm-raised salmon provides a nutritious and sustainably produced protein
with a low carbon footprint that contributes to Canada’s food security and
Blue Economy.

BC salmon farmers are committed to reconciliation, and all farms operating in
BC are currently in agreement, negotiation, or established partnerships with
First Nations in whose territories we operate. These agreements are founded
upon recognizing First Nations’ right to exercise jurisdiction over the land,
resources, and waters within their territories.
