AUSTIN, TX – H-E-B shoppers have a fresh, flavorful reason to explore the seafood aisle this spring. The grocer recently debuted Foppen’s all-new, ASC labeled Hot Smoked Norwegian Atlantic Salmon Bites – Garlic & Herb. These bite-sized, ready-to-eat salmon pieces are rich in smoky flavor, marinated in savory garlic and herbs, and certified as responsibly farmed by the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC).
Foppen – founded in 1918 – marries traditional smoking methods with modern products and flavors to produce premium quality smoked salmon available at grocers and restaurants worldwide. ASC is a global nonprofit impact organization leading the world’s strictest certification and labeling program for responsibly farmed seafood. Products with ASC’s sea green label have been raised with care on certified farms practicing environmental sustainability and social responsibility.
Smoked over a proprietary blend of oak and beech wood for a deep yet delicate flavor, Foppen’s Hot Smoked Norwegian Atlantic Salmon Bites deliver on taste, convenience and sustainability – perfect for snacking, salads or effortless meal prep. Available at select H-E-B locations in 4 oz. packs, they offer a premium, responsibly sourced seafood option that aligns with today’s demand for easy, high-quality protein.
A Powerful Addition to ASC’s National Marketing Campaign
Foppen launches its newest ASC labeled product amid the nonprofit’s multiyear North American marketing campaign to build awareness, interest and understanding of the value behind the ASC label and certification program. Its ‘Sea Green. Be Green.’ tagline helps shoppers connect delicious seafood with responsible sourcing right at point of sale.
Foppen’s new salmon bites expand the growing footprint of ASC labeled and certified responsible seafood products available at retailers nationwide.
