Sockeye salmon raised through land-based aquaculture using the groundbreaking Third Water™ technology have reached the shipping stage, marking a world-first in business-based commercial farming of this species. A press conference held on July 20, 2024, in Fukushima City by Ichii, Okayama University of Science (OUS), and NTT East Japan announced this achievement and introduced trial sales starting the next day at Ichii supermarkets.
