BCSFA and Brown’s Bay Packing Company

The BC Salmon Farmers Association (BCSFA )is dedicated to driving communication and cooperation within the salmon farming sector, and is the link between the industry and government.

BCSFA’s members are an important part of keeping British Columbia’s local coastal economy strong and diverse.

Members share a commitment to high operational standards, transparency and continuous development and improvement. The members have always been, and will continue to be the best community partners they can be.

Their membership is made up of B.C.’s proud salmon farmers, as well as the supply and service companies that support them. It’s a strong group that together – and with the assistance of the BCSFA, helps to educate the public, engage with government and communities, and continue in the positive development of the industry as a whole.

Environment is a lifelong commitment  

“We live, work and play in the area where our business is located. We raise our families here and care deeply about the marine environment. Operating an industrial business adjacent to marine environment requires attention to detail and risk management.
