Puumalan Lohi Oy produces top-quality rainbow trout, which is raised in the clear flowing waters of Lake Saimaa.
At Puumalan Lohi, the fish have ample space to swim in a three-hectare area, which is enclosed from Lake Saimaa. The area is up to 9 meters deep, and fresh Saimaa water flows through it at a rate of approximately 30,000 liters per second. In these ideal conditions, the rainbow trout can carry out their natural behavior without stress. Due to the sufficient living space, the fish also do not store excess fat in their bodies. This means that the fish develop firm flesh and a fresh taste.
Monitoring the quality of the water in close proximity to the fishery is an essential part of Puumalan Lohi Oy's business operations. Puumalan Lohi Oy operates under an environmental permit, and we work in connection with leading Sinnish authorities by regularly conducting tests pertaining to the water quality at the fish farm and its vicinity. The fishery has not been found to have a significant impact on the physical-chemical quality of the water in its surrounding areas.
Our goal is to produce responsible local food in harmony with nature and the surrounding community. The work is carried out in a long-term manner without compromising on responsibility, quality or taste.
“We are a third-generation family business and want to maintain the quality our predecessors have achieved through their hard work. We want to continue a traditional industry with a renewed, sustainable and competitive approach. In our operations, it is important to us to respect Saimaa, its surrounding nature and the communities living on its shores."
