Global Fresh Foods (GFF), San Francisco, successfully ocean freighted 40,000 pounds of fresh salmon from Lirquen, Bio-Bio, Chile, to the Port of Long Beach, Calif., without the use of polystyrene or ice. Instead, GFF employed its patented, controlled atmosphere fuel cell-based technology to keep fish fresh for the entire length of its journey.
This event is said to mark the first time that a full 40-foot container of non-frozen salmon has been shipped to the United States via ocean freight.
