High-quality, sustainable factory planned by Australis in Khánh Hòa

News 07:43 26/06/2025
(seafood.vasep.com.vn) Australis Aquaculture, headquartered in Massachusetts (USA), has broken ground on a new processing plant near its farming site in Khanh Hoa Province, Vietnam.

According to the company’s announcement, the new facility will “significantly enhance efficiency, sustainability, and product quality across the entire operational chain.” Equipped with advanced nitrogen freezing technology, the plant will preserve the natural texture and flavor of the products, setting a new quality standard in seafood processing.

The nitrogen freezing method reduces ice crystal formation, thereby protecting the structure and quality of the fish—particularly grouper, which is Australis’s core product in Vietnam.

The plant is also integrated with continuous productivity monitoring technology and an intelligent portioning system, enabling real-time optimization of processing operations. Additionally, synchronized lines for coating, breading, dehydration, and tray packing will be housed under one roof, enhancing consistency, minimizing waste, and improving product traceability.

Mr. Josh Goldman, CEO of Australis, stated that this investment was made in collaboration with an experienced real estate developer in Vietnam. “Bringing processing closer to our aquaculture facilities and applying advanced technology allows us to deliver higher-quality products to customers while improving operational efficiency and environmental performance,” he emphasized.

The construction of the new processing facility is also seen as a significant step in Australis’s global growth strategy. Previously, the company announced plans to invest an additional $800 million in its Vietnam operations in the coming years, bringing the total investment to $1 billion. This capital will be allocated to developing aquaculture and processing infrastructure, creating biomass, and supporting research, development, and biological innovation over the long term.

In addition to the Khánh Hòa facility, Australis is currently advancing the development of Vietnam’s first offshore aquaculture farms and planning to expand operations with a second regional hub in Kiên Giang Province.
