Our Process

Here’s a look into our not-caught process for producing seafood. We continue to refine and optimize our cultivation process to ensure to most sustainable and safest practices in the industry.

Isolate Cells from Fish

We start by taking a sample from a fish and extracting stem cells that have the potential to become muscle and fat.

Establish Cell Line

We culture these stem cells, figure out what conditions they need to grow in and what they like to eat, and develop processes for facilitating growth.

Proliferate Cells

We move the cells into large bioreactors to grow a few million cells into trillions of cells and then signal those cells to turn into muscle and fat.

Form End Products

We harvest the muscle and fat cells and form them into a variety of delicious seafood we like to consume, from sushi to sashimi and fish balls to fillets.

Enjoy!

We partner with chefs, dining establishments, and purveyors of fine foods to bring delicious, nutritious cultivated seafood to people around the world.
