salmon by hunt's smokehouse
Our salmon is dry cured using the finest sea salt, which, unlike the rock salt most smokehouses use, contains many important minerals that affect the flavour and texture of the salmon. We traditionally smoke our salmon over pure oak chips and prepare our fish in our small, purpose-built smokehouse, using modern technology and traditional techniques and an attention to detail that few can rival, to create a product that is very special.
We source the highest-quality salmon, from our trusted partners in Norway, the Faroe Islands and Scotland. The Atlantic salmon is Global Gap certified from reputable, sustainable fisheries.
Each fillet is carefully checked and handled with the utmost care to ensure it meets our exacting standards and exceeds customer expectations. We use all our experience to create a beautiful artisan product with an exquisite taste and delicate texture. It is truly a work of love!
OUR JOURNEY
Hope Seafood Ltd was established in November 2020, as a family-owned and family-run trading company. At the beginning of 2023, Thomas Hunt, owner and Smoking Master, decided to build a smokehouse on the current site in Southburgh, Norfolk. By having complete control of the process, from sourcing raw materials, processing and distribution, Thomas knew that we would be able to reliably supply our customers, every week of the year, with a superior quality, consistent product.
With this vision in mind and with the constant support of his wife Oksana, Thomas and his son, Harry, began building the factory – it took 6 months for the purpose-built site to come to life. By June 2023, Hunt’s Smokehouse was operational. Since then, Hunt’s Smokehouse has been a truly hands-on family-run business. Our initial SALSA certification was gained on 17th August 2023.
OUR NEXT STEPS
We have been working hard to build our factory to the standards we have now. Our small working team shares the same passion as Thomas and is committed to delivering their best, so the company can continue growing and expanding.
We currently hold SALSA (Safe And Local Supplier Approval) accreditation and are working to achieve BRCGS certification in the next few months. This milestone will ensure our business is able to demonstrate compliance with the most demanding customer requirements in terms of food safety and quality, giving our customers complete confidence in us to be able to supply them with a product of the highest quality.
SUSTAINABILITY
We are also committed to sustainability, implementing practices that protect our environment, support local communities and ensure the long-term viability of our business. These include using 100% renewably-sourced electricity, more energy-efficient machinery and vehicles, recycling all of our polystyrene fish boxes, using natural sea salt which is the only salt that is sustainable and environmentally responsible and using certified sustainable pure oak wood chips that help to give our smoked salmon, along with our secret ingredient, it’s exquisite flavour.
