Innovasea expands to serve Chilean market

Innovasea, an aquaculture solutions company, has announced that it is now offering land-based aquaculture solutions to the Chilean aquaculture industry. 

The company is expanding its services to better serve the growing land-based salmon farm industry in Chile, one of the world’s largest fish farming regions.

Marc Turano, vice president of Land-Based Aquaculture at Innovasea, said “Our team in Chile includes former fish farmers who know the industry from every angle. They offer top-notch expertise and hands-on technical support to implement tailored solutions that boost fish production, lessen environmental impacts, improve regulatory compliance, streamline operations and increase profitability.”

Innovasea’s Chilean operation in Puerto Varas opened in 2020, and has since collaborated with Chilean aquaculture companies that have installed Innovasea’s aquaculture solutions. 

The office is managed by Innovasea’s Juan Pablo Barrales, who has more than 25 years of experience working in Chile’s aquaculture industry. “Building on almost five years of supporting net-pen salmon farmers to boost productivity and profitability, I’m thrilled to be able to deliver Innovasea’s proven technology and equipment to land-based customers in Chile,” said Barrales. “Our hands-on technical support and services will ensure our customers long-term success with their hatchery and grow-out operations.”
